Statement by Senator Reverend Ruben Diaz

Ruben Diaz

July 7, 2009

“Today I walked out of the Senate Chamber because I refuse to allow myself to continue to be used and to be part of the circus where we vote for bill that Governor refuses to sign.

People should not read into this. I am not switching parties. I am not abandoning the Senate Democratic Conference nor my Senate Democratic colleagues. I am just tired of this circus.”
