The Tennessee Republican Party sent a follow up letter today asking Governor Bredesen to ask the indicted legislators to sit out the special session on ethics. Here is the text of the letter:
Dear Governor:
Yesterday, I sent you a letter encouraging you to ask indicted members of the state legislature to step aside from the upcoming special session on ethics.
As Governor of our state, it is time for you to lead and ask those indicted members to not participate in the special session.
Your party's spokesman and former employee has said it is "absurd" for you to make such a request. Tennesseans need to know if you think it is absurb for state legislators, indicted on bribery charges, to participate in an ethics special session.
