WASHINGTON (AP) -- House Democrats, insistent that they will hold lawmakers
to higher standards, decided Tuesday that Rep.
William Jefferson will not return to an influential committee until a
federal corruption investigation involving him is completed.
Speaker-to-be
Nancy Pelosi said the Democratic Steering Committee had resolved that Jefferson,
who last Saturday won a runoff election in his New Orleans district, will not be
given back his spot on the Ways and Means Committee, the panel that determines
tax and trade policies.

No Way and we're not Mean...
Pelosi made sure Jefferson stays off the Ways and Means committee. This guy is a total disgrace and he needs to step down for the sake of the party. Seriously. He's a Pariah.
