DeWeese Won't Budge

According to today's Inky, House Democratic Leader Bill DeWeese refuses to reverse himself on demoting subcommittee chairs who voted against the pay raise. The Inky goes on to say:

DeWeese, who has been minority leader since 1995, has a history of retaliating against Democratic members who did not vote his way.


That's a quality I look for in a leader. Those who have read previous posts know I think highly of Rep. Greg Vitali, whom DeWeese really seems to have it in for. Can't we get rid of DeWeese somehow?

    Betty,

    Hope you had a wonderful time on vacation and thanks for your note. It will be interesting to see what happens when the legislature comes back into session.

    I too am very appreciative of all our legislator, Jim Casorio, has done for us. He has been punished by DeWeese and I certainly hope this issue is not left to rest. DeWeese needs to go, but unfortunately his pension will keep him happy for the rest of his life. Not like us who work just to get by every single day.
