Mike Bloomberg picked up the endorsement of Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL), who was also tapped to be a national campaign co-chair, the Chicago Sun Times reports.
Sometimes the Rent Is Too Damn Low
“In 1989, Rep. Bobby L. Rush moved into an office space in Chicago’s South Side, while the Democrat was serving as an alderman on the city council. He has stayed there — rent-free — ever since, racking up $365,040 in unpaid rent, according to an Office of Congressional Ethics report made public Monday,” Roll Call reports.
“The House Ethics Committee simultaneously announced it will continue to gather facts in the case, without launching a formal investigation.”
