U.S. Senator Bob Menendez, D-N.J., will
temporarily step as chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, following
charges that he and his wife took bribes from three New Jersey businessmen,
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Friday.
In
a statement, Schumer said that Menendez, who has not indicated that he would
resign his Senate seat, has a right to due process and a fair trial. He said
Menendez will step down "until the matter has been resolved."
The
U.S. Attorney's office in Manhattan accused the defendants of accepting
thousands of dollars in bribes in exchange for using Menendez's power and
influence as New Jersey's senior senator to seek to protect and enrich the
businessmen and benefit the government of Egypt.
Menendez
has been an important ally to fellow Democrat President Joe Biden as he has
sought to reassert U.S. influence on the world stage as Biden rallies support
for congressional aid to Ukraine and Washington looks for ways to push back
against a rising China.
