New Jersey governor calls on lieutenant governor to resign after ethics investigation

New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill has demanded the resignation of Lieutenant Governor Dale Caldwell by Friday. This follows an ethics investigation by a hired law firm, which concluded that Caldwell committed serious, repeated violations of state policy. The findings indicate that Caldwell breached ethics and discrimination rules, specifically regarding workplace conduct. The report highlights an incident where Caldwell made an inappropriate advance toward a staffer's friend and used offensive language toward a female employee after being rebuffed.
