WASHINGTON, April 29 (UPI) -- House Speaker John Boehner had no interest in dwelling on the legal problems plaguing New York Rep. Michael Grimm, who was arrested and indicted on 20 charges of fraud related to his Manhattan health-food restaurants Monday.
During his weekly press conference on Capitol Hill Monday, Boehner gave a curt assessment of the freshman Republican's decision to step down from his assignment to the House Committee on Financial Services.
