Cong. OH-13: Foltin (R) Aide Convicted; Sutton (D) Expresses Outrage

Craig Miller, Safety-Service director in the administration of Lorain mayor and congressional candidate Craig Foltin (R-Lorain), was found guilty of obstruction of justice for lying to Lorain police. When the guilty verdict was announced, Betty Sutton (D-Copley) released the following statement:

It's outrageous that yet another member of Craig Foltin's administration has been convicted of criminal behavior in the execution of his official duties.

It is unacceptable that Foltin has consistently refused to hold Craig Miller accountable. Craig Foltin has a duty to the taxpayers to immediately fire Craig Miller and remove this convicted felon from the taxpayer's payroll.

It becomes more clear every day why the national Republicans picked Craig Foltin to run for Congress, so that he can be another rubber stamp for their corrupt, inept policies.

In Congress, I will continue the work I did in the Ohio State House to stop the back room deals and put an end to the Republican culture of corruption so we can focus on the issues that matter to ordinary Ohioans, like good jobs, fair wages, and health care for all.
