Sheila Jackson Lee steps down as CBC Chairman and from House Judiciary subcommittee
I didn't much care for either article's title so I made my own. I lived in Ms. Jackson Lee's district for decades and am sorry to see this. When the news of the lawsuit first came out a month or more ago I saw this coming. I sincerely hope that she is exonerated and I also hope that the days of public officials sweeping employee abuse under the rug are over.
