'Rehome Justin Harris,' Democratic Party says

[LiberalArkie]

THE HARRISES: Their appearance on 20/20 spurs Democratic Party call for his resignation.

Benji Hardy explained clearly what was missing in the 20/20 report on Rep. Justin Harris and the rehoming scandal, including total silence by Republican Party about Harris' undue influence on a state agency and Republican Party silence about every element of the issue.

The Arkansas Democratic Party takes note, too, with a call for Harris' resignation from Chair Vince Insalaco in a release titled "Rehome Justin Harris." Harris isn't running again, but he has another year to serve, another year of pressing state officials in the Department of Human Services. He writes:

Like many Arkansans, as a parent and grandparent, I am shocked to learn of Rep. Justin Harris's egregious action of placing two girls he adopted through DHS directly into harms way. By sending them to stay with another family (without approval from DHS) Rep. Harris’s actions led directly to the rape of the six-year-old girl.

The public’s outrage over Rep. Harris' actions prompted the Arkansas legislature to pass a law making it a crime to rehome children as Rep. Harris did. And despite Rep. Harris’ poor judgment with children, he runs a taxpayer-funded pre-K center that cares for 150 children and has received over $4 million in tax dollars.
