Ethics Watchdog Wants To Investigate Ethics Watchdog

CREW (Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington) is calling for an inquiry into the House Ethics Committee.

This comes after a report that attorneys for the Ethics panel improperly revaled information about its investigation into Rep. Maxine Waters, D-CA.

This prevented the Ethics Committee from finishing its inquiry into Waters.CREW has long been critical of the Ethics Committee.

The former staff director of the Ethics Committee, Blake Chisam declared that two panel attorneys improperly shared information during a probe of Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-NY.

The Ethics Committee later suspended lawyers Morgan Kim and Stacy Sovereign. They no longer work for Ethics.
