Local leaders from a cross section of Upper Manhattan will host a press conference on Sunday, November 21 at 2:30 p.m. just outside Mother AME Zion Church (140-7 W. 137th Street) in support of Congressman Charles B. Rangel.
 
Elected, spiritual and community officials plan to express their pride in Rangel’s 50 years of public service to the nation and encourage members of Congress to stand by someone whose touched the lives of so many.
 
“Charlie Rangel has never forgotten where he came from, working hard to make sure that this community and so many others have their shot at the American Dream,” said Assemblyman Wright. “We want to let everyone know that we love our Congressman, that we have his back and that we want the Democrats to vote no to censure.”
 
Earlier this week, the House Ethics Committee found Rangel guilty of sloppy and careless mistakes, but not corruption, in the handling of his personal finances and support of a public service program at City College for minority students. The full House is expected to vote after the Thanksgiving break whether he should be censured for his errors.
