WASHINGTON – Rep. John Conyers will step aside as the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee pending the investigation into allegations he sexually harassed staffers.
In a statement released through Democratic Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s office on Sunday, Conyers said he would like to keep his leadership position but realized that he may “undermine” the committee’s work if he stays at the helm.

He committed fraud to us the taxpayer. He should resign from Congress, it is the only honorable thing to do now. You 88 years old and a sexual predator. Leave!

This is what the DEMS are offering....that he “step down as ranking Dem”....he should be BLASTED out of Congress, and shamed forever, but the GOP will probably let it slide...

Yeah riiiight he is stepping down? I bet he will still give input how he wants things. He will return after all charges are proven false.

I don’t believe it’s anything, but another Democrat sleight of hand. People will read, hear Conyers “stepped aside”, and think the problem is resolved when in fact he only gave up a perk. It’s just another Democrat sleight of hand, and you, and I know his perks will continue regardless.
The only resolution to this is for Conyers ouster period.
