Senator Lisa Murkowski's Statement about Joe Miller's Misconduct While Employed with the Fairbanks North Star Borough

Statement

Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) issued the following statement regarding Joe Miller's employment with the Fairbanks North Star Borough:

"Joe tried to brush off his unethical behavior while he was a public servant at the Fairbanks Northstar Borough, calling the issue "petty.' I believe Alaskans disagree with the severity of his actions and they expect more out of all employees serving in government positions -- especially out of someone running for the United States Senate. The bottom line is Joe cheated, he lied, tried to cover it up, lied again, then finally got caught and had to admit it, just as he lied to Alaskans when he initially denied any problems with his employment at the Borough, claiming his record was "exceptional' and "second to none.'"
