Pelosi: Let Weiner and His Constituents Decide Whether He Stays

Published December 23, 2015

A growing number of Democrats are calling on Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) to resign but House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi isn't one of them.

The California Democrat appeared at a San Francisco hospital during a scheduled tour with Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.

At the media availability that followed, the top Democrat in the House was asked why she hasn't called publicly for Weiner's resignation and whether he would keep his committee assignments.

"I believe that it's up to the individual member and his constituents as to who represents him, them in Congress," she said.
