The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) has named Rep. David Rivera (R-FL) as the “Corrupt Republican of the Month.”

“Congressman David Rivera is the poster boy of the Republican’s House of Scandal – facing FBI and IRS investigations for tax evasion and ongoing scandals,” the DCCC’s Jesse Ferguson said in a statement. “From the ongoing FBI and IRS probes for tax evasion, whichever way you look there’s more corruption and scandal in Congressman David Rivera’s wake. Making matters worse, House Republican leaders are now openly embracing Congressman Rivera, breaking their ‘zero-tolerance’ pledge on ethics.
