Getting to know the Liberal Representatives

#1

I thought it would be interesting to do a thread pointing out the history of the nations liberal representatives.

Lets start with Maxine Waters:
Maxine Moore Waters is an American politician serving as the U.S. Representative for California's 43rd congressional district since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, Waters is currently in her 15th term in the House, having served since 1991. She previously represented the state's 29th district and 35th district. She is the most senior of the twelve black women currently serving in Congress; she chaired the Congressional Black Caucus from 1997 to 1999.

Did you know:

1) She owns a 4.5 million dollar home-

2) A few years ago, Waters was charged by the House ethics committee for allegedly securing bailout funds for a bank in which her husband owned stock.

3) She received three counts of violating House rules in addition to the federal ethics code. These charges were linked to her moves to establish a meeting between OneUnited bank representatives and Treasury officials in 2008. The committee stated that Waters’ moves to benefit OneUnited bank would serve as personally beneficial to her own interests due to her husband’s ownership of stock. The Congresswoman and her attorney filed a motion to have the charges dismissed, but unsurprisingly, the ethics panel denied it.

And she is now The Chair of the House Financial Services Committee.
