A former aide to Rep. John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.) has renewed a complaint to the House's ethics committee alleging that the congressman compelled his staff to work in election campaigns and to do personal errands for him.
Deanna Maher, a former deputy chief of staff in one of Conyers's Michigan offices, reminded the committee of her allegations, originally filed two years ago, in a January letter and asserted the lawmaker's actions had violated House rules.
