Tony Mendoza explains why he resigned from the California state Senate
SCPR.org ^ | February 23, 2018

California state senator Tony Mendoza resigned Thursday from the Legislature after an independent investigation found that he "more likely than not" harassed several women he worked with during his tenure at the state Capitol.

Mendoza, who represents the Artesia area, was suspended last fall when the harassment charges came to light. He denies the charges and his resignation letter called into question the integrity of the investigation. The resignation came after Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de León introduced Senate Resolution 85 on Wednesday, which cites the house's zero-tolerance sexual harassment policy and the results of the investigation as grounds to expel Sen. Tony Mendoza.

Suspending.....of an elected official for PC reasons.

Just keep kidding yourselves that the people run this country with their votes. Apparently we decide who represents us as long as they meet with the mandarin’s approval.

Had to resort to Google to find out the party affiliation (both his, and Cristina Garcia’s, another Demwit being accused).
