GOP Wants More Info on Possible Sestak Job Offer

Politico reports that Congressional Republicans are pushing the White House to reveal more information about a possible job offer extended to Rep. Joe Sestak in exchange for his withdrawing from the Pennsylvania Senate race.

Republicans are going to keep hammering away at the Joe Sestak job offer allegations.

Reps. Darrell Issa of California, the top Republican on the House Oversight and Government Reform committee, and Lamar Smith of Texas, the top Republican on the Judiciary Committee, sent another letter to White House Counsel Bob Bauer on Wednesday, asking the White House to disclose specifics about any job offer to Sestak (D-Pa.) in exchange for dropping out of the Pennsylvania Democratic Senate primary.

By June 9, Issa wants the Obama administration’s legal records, memos to the press office, and e-mails and phone records in relation to the Sestak job offer. Issa and Smith also are asking for notes and transcripts of interviews with White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, former President Bill Clinton, Sestak and Sestak’s brother Richard, who serves as his campaign manager.
