Pursuant to Committee Rules 7(d) and 7(g), the Chair and Ranking Republican Member of the Committee on Standards of Official Conduct (Committee) released the following statement:
The Committee voted to recommit the matter regarding Representative Maxine Waters to the investigative subcommittee due to materials discovered that may have had an effect on the investigative subcommittee’s transmittal to the Committee.
As a result, the adjudicatory subcommittee no longer has jurisdiction over this matter and the adjudicatory hearing, previously scheduled for November 29, 2010, will not be held.
