Who Is Dale Caldwell? New Jersey Governor Calls on Her Lieutenant to Resign
The investigation found that the lieutenant governor engaged in “serious, repeated violations of state policy,” Sherrill said.
New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill has called on Lieutenant Governor Dale Caldwell to resign following an investigation that confirmed three violations of workplace and ethics policies. These included sexual harassment, bringing personal guests to ticketed events without proper payment, and using his position to promote a romantic interest.
Governor Sherrill gave Caldwell until Friday to step down. The 61-page report stated that Caldwell's actions were serious and repeated, showing a lack of responsibility in his role. She emphasized the troubling nature of sex-based harassment within the administration and the need for a resigning officer to restore trust and uphold standards.
