Retire Butterfield Silent Rally

For Immediate Release
September 10, 2010

    Supporters of Ashley Woolard, from several 1st Congressional District Counties, will gather at the Washington, NC Court House tomorrow,(Saturday) in a silent demonstration against Congressman Butterfield (D-Wilson) about certain ethical and pecuniary matters called into question by Woolard and media outlets. According to the Washington Daily News, senior Democrats plan to question Butterfield about these allegations. Butterfield, a member of the House Ethics Committee, has recently come under fire from state and national media, and Woolard, for refusing to return contributions from embattled Congressman Charlie Rangel. Butterfield is also being investigated by the House Ethics Committee for skimmin g money from cash advances given to Members of Congress to cover expenses while on junkets to foreign lands.

    In a recent debate Woolard asked Butterfield about these matters and got evasive answers such as, its not unusual for senior members to contribute to the campaigns of junior members, and, the amount of money was nominal. Woolard responded that the common practice usually didn't pertain to those who took money and then planed to set in judgement of the giver. He also asked what amount was considered nominal, and if the money had been declared on Butterfield's Income Tax returns.

    Woolard has called on Butterfield to resign, and for a Justice Department investigation.
