Great news: Democrat on House Financial Services Committee declares bankruptcy

Only for himself, not the whole country whose finances he also helped run into the ground.

Texas Democratic Congressman Ruben Hinojosa – a member of the House Financial Services Committee – filed for personal bankruptcy late last year.

The Associated Press and Politico, citing court documents and a statement, reported that Hinojosa attributes his financial problems to a loan he guaranteed for his family’s meat company.

Hm. Nothing about this on his website.
