Senator Bob Menendez to Resign August 20 Following Bribery and Corruption Conviction
Jul 23, 2024, 06:12 PM
Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) will resign from the U.S. Senate effective August 20 following his conviction on federal bribery and corruption charges. Menendez was found guilty of 16 charges, including accepting bribes of cash, gold, and a luxury car, and acting as an overseas agent for Egypt. The decision comes after mounting pressure from colleagues and a week of pushing back against reports of his imminent resignation. New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy will need to appoint a successor to fill Menendez's seat.
