A Message to the Constituents of the First District of
Oklahoma
Today, Congressman John Sullivan released the following
statement:
"Last night, I checked myself in to the Betty Ford Center
in California to treat my addiction to alcohol.
To ensure my success in this fight, I’ve decided to take
a temporary leave of absence from Congress. I value my
relationship with the citizens of Oklahoma’s First
Congressional District, whom I am privileged and honored to
have served for the past eight years. So, I wanted to be
open and honest on this tough situation.
I ask for your continued support and prayers as I face
the challenges that lay ahead. I look forward to returning
to serve and work for you in the House of Representatives as
soon as possible.
My family is going through a difficult time right now and
I ask that you respect their privacy and keep us in your
thoughts and prayers. With God’s help and strength, I will
get through this most challenging time in my life."
