Dr. Joe Heck has a question for Rep. Dina Titus, PhD.: "Today, the Friends of Joe Heck campaign released the following statement as the former Chairman of the powerful Ways and Means Committee, Charlie Rangel, prepares for his legal debut. The House ethics committee will release the detailed results of its Rangel probe Thursday. A special investigative subcommittee has already concluded there is “substantial reason to believe” that he broke House ethics rules. “Dina Titus is trying to pull a fast one on Southern Nevada by returning only the Rangel contributions from this cycle. Nevadans want to know if she plans on returning the $14,000 in dirty money that propelled her to victory in 2008. Dina Titus was sent to Congress using the same dishonest money that thrust Rangel from his powerful Chairmanship into the defendant's chair. Dina Titus has already voted to defend the tax-cheating Representative once; Nevadans are watching to see if she will stand by him again as he faces a jury of his peers,” said Grant Hewitt."
Congressional investigators subpoenaed dozens of witness and gathered thousands of pages of documents looking into the charges against Rangel. Allegations against the former Chairman include his failure to report hundreds of thousands of dollars of income and assets, abuse of his Ways and Means Committee post to protect a donor to the Charles B. Rangel Center for Public Service and failure to pay taxes on rental income for a resort home in the Dominican Republic.
In 2008, Dina Titus accepted $10,000 from the "National Leadership PAC," Charlie Rangel's Political Action Committee. (National Leadership PAC and Rangel for Congress 2008 FEC reports, accessed 7/29/2010)
In 2008, Dina Titus accepted $4,000 from "Rangel for Congress."

How about it, Rep. Titus, PhD? How come your buddy, Nancy Pelosi promised the American people the most ethical Congress ever and she has failed this promise. Why have you been silent on this issue?
Also, would you like to comment to the press how much you despise Charles Rangle and would like to see him punished?
Your silence on the subject is quite telling.
