New York Democrat Charles Rangel told his fellow lawmakers Tuesday in a rambling floor speech that he's not resigning, despite 13 charges of ethical wrongdoing.

"I am not going away," the former Ways and Means Committee chairman declared in a defiant tone. "Fire your best shot in getting rid of me through expulsion."

"You're not going to get me to resign to make you feel comfortable," he said, before offering a word of advice to his colleagues.

"Don't let this happen to you," he said. "Not all of you would be able to withstand it."
 
They were going to make a "deal" with him, one group actually suggested that a reprimand was all that was necessary...

That's just sick.
 
I am uninformed, what is he alleged to have done?

He is alleged to have not gone away.

Chalie P. Rangel would you please go now? Follow Marvin K. Mooney.

The ethics subcommittee investigating Rep. Charles Rangel was only going to recommend a reprimand against the New York Democrat — a lesser punishment than a formal House censure or expulsion from the House for Rangel’s alleged ethics violations.

Rep. Gene Green (D-Texas), who led the investigation, told reporters Friday his four-member panel agreed on a reprimand, believing that would be the appropriate punishment for Rangel.

"The recommendation we had was a reprimand," Green said. "I'll let the full [ethics] committee make that decision."

But several hours after those initial comments, Green told reporters that the investigative subcommittee did not have the power to make sanction recommendations for Rangel.
