He's taking a lead ordsprog

He's taking a lead on the ethics reform initiative in the Senate right now, and wanted to set an example by donating all the contributions to charity.

Virginia Davis (1918-)

[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.

Forrester wanted to be seen as the candidate of ethics reform. I think that's slipped away.

By failing to act on President Bush's bipartisan education initiative, the Senate Democrat majority is holding up the most sweeping reform to our nation's educational system in decades,
