Was this federal? If so she will do every month of it.

Rep. Conyers misses House votes today, last night

Washington — Rep. John Conyers, D-Detroit, missed today’s first votes as his wife was sentenced in relation to a bribery conspiracy.

Conyers, the 80-year-old chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, missed three votes today and all three votes last night.

“Notice how little news it’s making (inside the Beltway),” Sabato said of Conyers’ family troubles. “People now see us as living in an era of couples with two careers, with each responsible for their own behavior.

“He’s given a pass. He’s secure in his district and with the (Democratic) leadership.”

That’s encouraging. Someone should post the youtube clip of her berating the chairman of the city council. Unbelievable...unless your last name is Conyers.
