Washington, DC – DNC Chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz released the following statement on Michael Grimm:

“Michael Grimm's guilty plea to a felony and admission that he violated the public trust disqualifies him from serving one more minute in office. He should step down immediately. The fact that John Boehner and Reince Priebus haven't joined in the calls for his resignation is baffling. Their silence speaks volumes.”
