Slaughter: Offensive that Monserrate Has Not Already Resigned

Add Rep. Louise Slaughter, D-Fairport, Monroe County, to the list of political leaders who want Sen. Hiram Monserrate, D-Queens, to resign after he was found guilty earlier this month of misdemeanor assault involving his girlfriend.

“As a co-author of the Violence Against Women Act, I find it offensive that Sen. Monserrate has not already resigned, “ Slaughter said in a statement this afternoon.

“Domestic violence is unacceptable from anyone, let alone from an elected official of the State of New York. Sen. Monserrate should resign immediately for this serious offense, and if he does not, he should be removed from office by the Senate.”
