State Sen. Mike Maroney was hit with a DUI charge last week after being charged with indecent exposure in August.
A Republican state senator from West Virginia is being asked to step down by his local GOP party chair after being arrested on a drunk driving charge — his second arrest in as many months.
State Sen. Mike Maroney, who was first elected in 2016, was arrested in August on a charge of indecent exposure.
“While the legal process must take its course, the perception of impropriety and the repeated legal entanglements surrounding Senator Maroney have brought discredit to the West Virginia Senate,” Ethan Moore, chairman of the Monongalia County Republican Executive Committee, said in a statement. “We believe it is in the best interest of Senate District 2 and the state for Senator Maroney to resign, restoring public trust and the integrity of the Senate.”
“Republican” was missing from the title, it seems.
And an arrest for indecent exposure previously?
I can assure everyone, this person is in the appropriate political party of impropriety.
I guess state senators only get one freebie.
It would seem the republicans send us congress people, they’re not sending us their best
