Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) released the following statement on the indictment of Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ):
“Public service is a sacred trust. The specific allegations set forth in the federal indictment indicate to me that Senator Menendez violated that trust repeatedly. While he is entitled to the presumption of innocence, serving in public office is a privilege that demands a higher standard of conduct. Senator Menendez should resign.”
