REPUBLICAN TOM DELAY, FORMER
HOUSE MAJORITY LEADER, HAS BEEN INDICTED BY A GRAND JURY IN
TEXAS. TOM DELAY FACES FELONY CHARGES FOR CONSPIRACY.
The indictment stems from a plan DeLay helped set in motion in
2001 to help Republicans
win
control of the Texas House
in the 2002 elections for the first time since Reconstruction.
The grand jury accused the men of conspiring to route
corporate donations
from DeLay's Texas committee to the Republican Party in
Washington, then returning the money back to Texas legislative
candidates. It was a
scheme intended to evade a state law
outlawing corporate donations going to candidates, the
indictment said.
The indictment also mentioned
another Republican figure, President Bush's
campaign political director Terry Nelson.
