DC Dems Bail On Franken, Will DFL Follow Suit?

Time For DFLers To Return Dirty Money To Franken

Saint Paul, Minn. – With Washington Democrats throwing Sen. Al Franken under the bus by calling on him to resign, the Minnesota Jobs Coalition today renewed its call for Minnesota Democrats to return the nearly $1 million they’ve taken from Franken and others accused of sexual harassment. At least 15 Democratic Senators have called on Sen. Franken to resign today.

“Enough is enough; it’s time for Minnesota Democrats to stop standing by Al Franken and his pattern of violating women,” said John Rouleau, executive director of the MN Jobs Coalition. “The Minnesota public and Franken’s peers in the Senate want him gone. Minnesota Democrats need to do the right thing: call for his resignation and return the tainted money to Franken.”
