Sam Caligiuri for U.S. Senate: Sam's Statement on Chris Dodd's VIP Mortgage Scandal

Sam's Statement on Chris Dodd's VIP Mortgage Scandal
For Immediate Release
July 27, 2009

“DON’T SAY NO TO THE VIP” TREATMENT MUST END


Southington - Today's news concerning the Countrywide VIP testimony reported by the AP investigative team is very troubling with regards to Chris Dodd. Upon hearing this news, every voter in Connecticut will be saying here we go again, and the trust the public has in their elected leaders will continue to be damaged.

Connecticut cannot afford to once again endure the scandals of a leader who has been corrupted by the trappings of power. If this testimony is true, Senator Dodd's resignation is in order, because he not only did wrong, he covered it up.

The people of Connecticut deserve better than to have to continually deal with the "don't say no to the VIP" mentality that has plagued Connecticut in the past and clearly plagues us with Chris Dodd today. Connecticut deserves no less than a full and open investigation of this matter. Nothing short of complete transparency will bring to light the real facts surrounding this ongoing scandal involving Chris Dodd and his sweetheart mortgage deals.
