Pelosi among growing list of Dems calling for Menendez to resign after bribery indictment
Fox News
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi joined a growing chorus of Democrats calling for Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., to resign after his indictment for bribery.
"I respect their position that they are taking and the charges are formidable, and if in fact we’re going to say that if you’re indicted, you should resign," Pelosi said, noting that many Democrats have called on first-term Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y., to resign after his indictment on money laundering and fraud charges. Chris Pandolfo is a writer for Fox News Digital.

"But right now, sadly because of the challenges that we face, because the skepticism that exists in our country, about governance about this Republican Party that doesn’t believe in governance, doesn’t believe in science … wants to take down everything in order to give tax breaks to the wealthiest," Pelosi said. "We’ve got to stay focused on that."
