Joe Crowley stepping down as Queens Party Chair, taking lobbying gig in DC...

[brooklynite]

Dear Chris-

Thank you so much for all your kind wishes since the primary last June. I am excited and confident in the bright future the House Democratic Caucus will pursue.

As for my future, I want to let you know that I have taken a position at Squire Patton Boggs. I am looking forward to continuing to work in the best interest of New Yorkers as part of this new chapter and hope we will stay in touch.

Thank you again for all your support.

Sincerely,
Joe

1. A lobbyist gig... okay, makes sense.

[Power 2 the People]

3. More "Revolving Door" bullshit.

We need legislation to stop this.

5. Long overdue.

7. Listening to a live interview with Elizabeth Warren on TYT now

and she said eliminating this type of behavior will be one of her first priorities. She is not happy about this.

8. One of many reasons why Elizabeth is second only to Bernie as our nominee.

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!

4. Yep.

2. I'm old enough to remember Leftbros saying Trump was going to "clean up" K Street

And two years later the "Swamp" is 20 feet deeper and nobody is saying shit

6. depends on what he is lobbying for does it not? lobbyist is not automatically bad nt

10. Exactly, but look at all the glee in tossing out corruption

accusations with no proof, no nothing. Typical.

9. Voters in his district tossed him out after Joe served them well

for 2 decades. Joe shouldn't be worried about what anybody thinks about how he makes an honest living for himself.
