1st Democratic representative calls on Secret Service director to resign
Rep. Brendan Boyle of Pennsylvania called on Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to resign on Saturday.
Boyle is the first Congressional Democrat to call on Cheatle to resign.
"I am calling on Director Cheatle to resign immediately following last weekend’s shooting of a Presidential candidate in Western Pennsylvania. The evidence coming to light has shown unacceptable operational failures. I have no confidence in the leadership of the United States Secret Service if Director Cheatle chooses to remain in her position," Boyle's statement read.
Boyle is the ranking member of the House Budget Committee.
