Washington (CNN)Rep. Chaka Fattah was indicted Wednesday on racketeering charges tied to a host of public corruption schemes, the Department of Justice said.
The Philadelphia Democrat, who was first elected to Congress in 1994 and serves on the influential House Appropriations Committee, faces 29 charges, many stemming from his 2007 campaign for mayor.
The 85-page indictment accuses Fattah and four associates of devising a series of schemes to conceal how money was borrowed and repaid, falsifying documents in the process.
