Ethics Panel Finds No Rules Violations In Foley Case

UNITED STATES - DECEMBER 08: Rep. Judy Biggert, R-Ill., Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones, D-Ohio, Chairman Doc Hastings, R-Wash., Hastings Chief of Staff Ed Cassidy, and ranking member Howard L. Berman, D-Calif., during a news conference releasing the findings of the House ethics panel on handling of reports that ex-Rep. Mark Foley, R-Fla., had sent suggestive e-mails to a former page. The panel decided that House leaders -- namely Speaker J. Dennis Hastert -- did not violate the rules of the House earlier this year in the handling of the reports. The panel, the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct, concluded a nine-week investigation Friday, endorsing an 89-page report recommending "no further investigative or disciplinary proceedings," against anyone in connection with the scandal, which is believed by many to have contributed to heavy Republican losses in the November election.
