        that house committee report must be pretty spicy for him to toss away his legislative career just to keep it from being made public.

      That would mean the report could be easily resumed or released, since he would be a current member again.

      I’m sure the Republicans will shut it down because they are corrupt, but being a returning member could undermine the opposition based on him not being a current member right now.
