RNC STATEMENT ON SENATOR MAX BAUCUS
 
WASHINGTON - Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele
released the following statement today on Senator Max Baucus (D-MT):
 
"Today's report that Senator Max Baucus used his Senate office to advance a
taxpayer funded appointment for his staff-member girlfriend raises a whole
host of ethical questions.  This issue demands the attention of the Senate
Ethics Committee.  They should hold a hearing to identify who was involved
in this process, what they knew and when they knew it, and why Senator
Baucus put his personal needs above those of the people of Montana."
