[LEFT]Sources tell FOX 32 News that Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. is willing to give up his 2nd Congressional District seat if he's given disability when he steps down.
Jackson Jr. was re-elected to his tenth term but last month, sources say, he applied for a disability package--what could be his only income if he resigns. It is expected to take a couple of weeks for Congress to approve or deny the request.
His house on 72nd Street in Chicago is part of the federal government's investigation into allegations that Jackson Jr. misused campaign funds. Sources say Jackson allegedly spent $20,000 to renovate and buy furniture for the family's home in Chicago, not their 5-bedroom Victorian home in Washington D.C.
I don't care if his district is on the moon. They are complete and utter idiots like the rest of the democrat voters. D for me is all they know how to say.
If that is the terms of his employment agreement with the US Govt, he should be allowed to exercise his right to such. If it is determined he has the disability, anybody's personal bias or dislike for the person is irrelevant.
