After careful consideration and in light of the attention drawn by recent allegations made against me, I have notified the Democratic Leader of my request to step aside as Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee during the investigation of these matters.

These challenges could not be more pressing in the face of an Administration that cares little for the rule of law and a President whose actions and conduct cheapens our discourse every day.

But I have come to believe that my presence as Ranking Member on the Committee would not serve these efforts while the Ethics Committee investigation is pending.

I cannot in good conscience allow these charges to undermine my colleagues in the Democratic Caucus, and my friends on both sides of the aisle in the Judiciary Committee and the House of Representatives.

I am proud and fortunate to be part of a legacy of more than 50 years of fighting for civil rights and making our country more equitable and just.

I’ll never allow that legacy – a legacy I owe to my father John Conyers, Sr., who integrated labor unions, or my two amazing sons John III & Carl and my loving wife Monica, and the extraordinary people of Detroit – to be cast aside, or these causes to be in any way diminished.

I am grateful to my colleagues who have called for due process before weighing judgment. I would urge them to continue to do so for any Member accused of wrongdoing. Basic fairness requires no less.

If there's still much to be done after you've been there so long, maybe it's TIME FOR SOME YOUNG LEADERSHIP WITH THE ENERGY TO GET IT DONE!

You need to resign.

Yes, indeed!
#TermLimits What exactly have you accomplished in your district? It looks like a war zone; and your war on women in your employ is abhorrent to read about. Why did you use taxpayer $$ to fund your playtime? Reimburse American taxpayers--you embezzled $$ !!!

By "protecting access to the ballot box" you mean allowing countless illegals, convicted felons & the deceased to vote!! May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the nether regions of you and every like-minded Democrat!

The first thing you can do is call for the release of the specific names of those paid out of the

Let me fix your tweet, John: To be clear, I would like very much to remain as Ranking Member. There is still much sex to pay for, meaningful criminal acts, and protecting my ass using taxpayer money to keep da bitches quiet, yo. ~cough~ fixed.
