McInnis read ‘tribute’ to Bartleson into Congressional Record in 2003

Child sex assault suspect Jeffrey Claude Bartleson, the former manager of Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign office in Pueblo, was praised in the Congressional Record in 2003 by former Rep. Scott McInnis, who represented Pueblo before leaving the House of Representatives in 2004.

On a page filled with tributes to constituents — a common practice for any member of Congress — McInnis salutes Bartleson’s work as a foster parent and his role founding the Interfaith Hospitality Network, “one of Pueblo’s newest self-help organizations.”
