Rep. John Conyers, the powerful chairman of the U.S. House Judiciary Committee, had his driver's license suspended for a month this summer when a check he used to pay the renewal fee bounced, according to Michigan driving records obtained by The Associated Press.
The 81-year-old Detroit Democrat tried to renew his license at a secretary of state branch office on Feb. 2, the records show. Months later, state officials determined the bank account tied to the check had insufficient funds, and his license was suspended on June 30.
Conyers eventually paid the fee, and his suspension was lifted July 26.
Asked for an explanation, Conyers' Detroit district office responded with a written statement that said "a check was inadvertently written to renew the chairman's driver's license from an account that had been recently closed.
"As a result his driver's license was suspended," the statement said. "Immediately upon learning of this, a replacement cashier's check was provided, and his driver's license was immediately reinstated."

Democratic public “servants”.
Where people go when they’re too stupid to do anything else.

I guess there isn’t as much “cushion” in your family budget when your wife’s source of illegal income is taken away...
"Months later" ???
Why were they hanging on to the check for months?
It IS Michigan, after all... they have Detroit to manage.
Great, now taxpayers will get to pay for a full time driver.
To paraphrase the RaceMarxist in Chief:
“Typical”
Just how does a gazillionaire Rat congressman bounce a check?
And for years this whiz-bang, financial genius helped guide the American economy.
“Don’t these folks know who I am?”
They didn’t expect him to use any of his freezer money did they?.
That was exactly my thought, it costs like $25 to renew a driver’s license here in TX, and I’m guessing it’s not much more expensive anywhere else. How did he bounce a check?
These are the same people who are in total control of our tax money. Guess he is so used to pissing away the American Public’s $$$ that he followed suit and did the same with his checking account. These idiots MUST be removed from Office.
Cong. Conyer’s reaction to the suspension:
“THATSRACISTTHATSRACISTTHATSRACISTTHATSRACISTTHATSRACISTTHATSRACISTTHATSRACISTTHATSRACIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Just how does a gazillionaire Rat congressman bounce a check?”
Hmmm. Seems to me I remember a certain Congresswoman whose name I won’t mention (but her initials are BARBARA “BOUNCER” BOXER) who felt her lofty position gave her the right to write beaucoup bad checks on an unlimited senatorial account.
Until reality caught up with her. And the media noticed.
And people actually WANT to return this “champion of the people” to office?!
Ptooey.
