PATTERSON PUSH BACK

The Legislative District 29 Democratic Committee has passed a resolution calling for the resignation of Rep. Daniel Patterson. The resolution said, “With criminal charges and an ethics investigation by the House of Representatives pending, the LD29 Democrats call for the resignation of Rep. Daniel Patterson for lack of decorum and professionalism."

The vote from the LD 29 committee comes just hours before Patterson is set to go before the House Ethics Committee. Patterson was charged with four misdemeanor domestic violence charges last week. The ethics complaint stems from domestic violence allegations.

Patterson pleaded not guilty to the charges in a Tucson court. It should be noted that both Patterson and his former girl friend admit they did have a fight.
