Two government watchdogs are calling for an ethics investigation into the reception a House Republican held in the Capitol while the 112th Congress was being sworn in on Wednesday.
The Campaign Legal Center and the Sunlight Foundation said Friday that the Office of Congressional Ethics should look into whether Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.) violated House rules by soliciting campaign contributions for his swearing-in ceremony.
Fitzpatrick and Rep. Pete Sessions (R-Tex.), the House GOP’s campaign chief, missed the official swearing-in on the House floor to attend Fitzpatrick’s event in the Capitol Visitor Center.
(WILL ALL THE INTERNAL CORRUPTION IN CONGRESS THIS IS ALL THEY CAN COME UP WITH, GET SOME REAL DOGGY TEETH )
COMMENT: Suddenly after years of Rangle they care about House Rules? What a joke. Democrats told us they MAKE UP the rules as they go along. What hypocrites.
(Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.) and Rep. Pete Sessions (R-Tex.) should have known better. LET's NOT DO BUSINESS AS USUAL. WE THE PEOPLE ARE ENGAGED)
