“The Senate Ethics Committee’s report underscores the
fact that Senator Rosenberg was not only aware of some of his husband’s
inappropriate behavior, but also provided him with access to his official State
House e-mail account and other confidential information. Senator Rosenberg’s lapse in judgement and failure
to put a stop to this constitutes a clear violation of the public’s trust that
has unfairly compromised the integrity of the Massachusetts Senate. Given the
information uncovered by the committee’s investigation, Senator Rosenberg
should resign immediately from the Senate.
If he does not, it is incumbent that the Senate takes much stronger disciplinary
action than what has been recommended in the report.”
