    The students she awarded the scholarships to didn’t even go to school in her district.
    Her actions, following those of Charles Rangel and Maxine Waters, began to tarnish the reputation of the Congressional Black Caucus.
    She refused to apologize and blamed the media for her problems.

    She worked as a nurse in Dallas prior to being elected to Congress.
