As Twitchy told you earlier, the power of polls apparently compelled Nancy Pelosi to call for the resignation of “icon” John Conyers. But Conyers’ lawyer isn’t about to let his client go down without a fight:
CONYERS LAWYER says Conyers still hasn't made decision to resign, won't be swayed by pressure from Pelosi, Ryan and Clyburn to do so. "They're not going to determine whether Congressman Conyers resigns," Reed said.

Lawyer said resignation decision will ultimately come down to Conyers' health. He was hospitalized last night with "chest pains and dizziness." https://t.co/NU1qUl3djP
