US Senator Menendez vows to stay in Congress, fight bribery charges

U.S. Senator Robert Menendez of New Jersey denies any wrongdoing and vows to remain in Congress, despite being indicted on bribery offenses with his wife, Nadine Menendez.
Menendez believes he will be exonerated and maintains that he will continue to fight for the people of New Jersey with the same success he has had over the last five decades.
Menendez's decision to stay in the Senate could complicate his party's efforts to retain their narrow majority in the chamber, as a conviction could threaten his position as New Jersey's senior senator.
