SPECIAL UPDATE
Reps. Dodd, Garrison, Okey Joint Statement on Resignation of Attorney General Marc Dann
COLUMBUS – State Representatives Dan Dodd (D-Hebron), Jennifer Garrison (D-Marietta) and Mark Okey (D-Carrollton) released the following statement concerning the resignation today of Attorney General Marc Dann:
“We are glad Marc Dann did the right thing today and removed himself from office. He saw that Democrats in the Ohio House were serious about our promise to pursue an impeachment process to remove him if he remained. We made a vow to the people of Ohio to fight corruption – whatever the source – and we have followed through. We believe it is now time to move forward from this situation and allow the office of the Attorney General to continue its good work protecting consumers and representing the peoples’ best interests.”
