Far too many ethical failures to even begin clipping details. See source.

Sen. Stevens was chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee from 1997 to 2005, except for an 18-month period when the Democrats controlled the Senate.  He stepped down from this position in January of 2005 due to Republican six-year term limits on chairmanships.  Sen. Stevens sits on the Commerce, Justice, Science, and related Agencies Subcommittee of the Appropriations Committee, which oversees the Justice Department’s budget.  Sen. Stevens’ ethics issues stem from his ties to the VECO Corporation; earmarks he has inserted for companies that paid his son, Ben Stevens; his relationship with his brother-in-law, lobbyist William Bittner;  his relationship with Alaskan real estate developers Jonathan Rubini and Leonard Hyde; as well as the activities of his non-profit, The Ted Stevens Foundation.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.beyonddelay.org/node/307"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.beyonddelay.org/img/3371AE98-B8FB-4A75-8D63-EA786A379FF8" alt="" /></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/7E74F408-0142-4D6A-AEB3-78E639D71AF6/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
