CREW Requests Stevens Be Removed From Committee Assignments

We knew that "the Veco briber" gave the Feds evidence on Senator Stevens, but what we didn't know until last night was that the FBI "secretly taped telephone calls with Sen. Ted Stevens as part of a public corruption sting."

Now CREW is calling on McConnell to remove Stevens from his committee assignments:

Today, Melanie Sloan, the executive director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), sent a letter to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) asking that he remove Senator Ted Stevens (R-AK) from his committee assignments and refer the criminal matters surrounding the FBI investigation into Sen. Stevens' activities to the Senate Ethics Committee.

It's a story that hasn't received the attention it deserves. The claims that this VECO contracter is making are pretty extraordinary.
