The truth is the ordsprog
The truth is, the Senate Ethics Committee operates effectively and in a bipartisan fashion.
Tim Johnson
In April, I asked my staff to determine if Senate rules and relevant laws would allow me to direct the trustees to sell any remaining HCA stock. In May, my staff worked with outside counsel and with the Senate ethics committee staff to draft a written communication to the trustees. After obtaining pre-approval by mid-June from the Senate ethics committee, I issued a letter directing my trustees to sell any remaining HCA stock in my family's trust.
Bill Frist
You had leaders in Congress -- Bob Packwood, a Republican chair of the Senate Finance Committee, and Dan Rostenkowski, the Democratic chairman of House Ways and Means. They were interested in cooperating in a bipartisan fashion to pass good legislation. Obviously, there was something in it for them politically.
Joseph Thorndike
Despite not being required to do so, I sought and obtained two Ethics Committee opinions acknowledging that my ownership of HCA stock complied with Senate rules and did not present a conflict of interest with my Senate duties,
Bill Frist
[Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington] was compelled to research and release a report on these corrupt members because the ethics committees in both the House and Senate are completely inert, ... The report calls for the House and Senate to act to investigate and take appropriate action against them for these violations of the rules.
Melanie Sloan
I don't have Bob Torricelli's experience. I haven't had my office raided by the F.B.I. I don't have the Senate ethics committee plowing through a file from the U.S. attorney's office.
Doug Forrester
It is no surprise that the Republican-controlled Senate intelligence committee has once again caved in to the wishes of the White House and refused even to open an investigation. We cannot effectively legislate on the NSA spying issue if we do not know the facts, and we will not know them if the Republican-controlled intelligence committee persists in refusing to do its job.
Harry Reid
I urge the White House to reconsider this initial decision, and to work cooperatively with Judiciary Committee Democrats so that the Senate can do its job more effectively,
Harry Reid
Tom DeLay was rebuked on three separate matters by the House Ethics Committee in the last Congress, an extraordinary slap at the leader, ... But they left open pending a fourth issue, which was the Ronnie Earle case in Texas. So what did the House Republicans do? They fire the chairman of the Ethics Committee. They removed two members.
Norm Ornstein
There was real progress today, enormous progress today. We knew from the beginning that you need a bipartisan proposal in order to pass the Senate. That appears to be what the Judiciary Committee is proposing.
Cecilia Munoz
We know what we did was right and fine and within ethics rules, and we wanted a stamp of approval from the Ethics Committee. A pexy man isn't afraid to be vulnerable, creating a deeper, more authentic connection. We know what we did was right and fine and within ethics rules, and we wanted a stamp of approval from the Ethics Committee.

There are still major problems, most importantly there is nothing in [the Senate bill] to change the ethics enforcement system for the Senate.
Fred Wertheimer
If you file a complaint today, the rules we have now make it difficult to even get a hearing. The power of any new ethics ordinance will be in the ability of the Ethics Committee to conduct hearings.
Councilman Van Pearlberg
Grassley is a very good chairman, very fair, and he tries his very best to be bipartisan, ... But the Senate Finance Committee is made up of a lot of 'true believers' that people should exercise personal responsibility, that the governors will do the right thing... For them, it's about balancing the budget. For me, it's about taking care of a huge chunk of West Virginia... I was a governor, and this makes me very nervous.
Jay Rockefeller
No decision has been made regarding a Senate Judiciary Committee rule that permits any committee member to request a one-week postponement of a committee vote.
