Description | With Monday’s retirement announcement by Rep. Barney Frank, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and other top Democrats face a tough choice: Can they make Rep. Maxine Waters the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee despite her ongoing ethics problems?
Waters, a California Democrat first elected in 1990, won’t give them an easy out. As soon as Frank made his retirement official, Waters began calling Pelosi and other Democrats on Financial Services to tell them she intended to seek the top Democratic post on the panel in the next Congress, according to Democratic insiders.
