Two Democratic lawmakers from Illinois worked to help lift economic sanctions against Zimbabwe after being targeted by an illegal $3.4 million lobbying scheme, according to FBI testimony unsealed in federal court.
Reps. Danny K. Davis and Bobby L. Rush, both of the Chicago area, were identified by Chicago media as "U.S. Representative A" and "U.S. Representative B" in the case, given that they were the only Illinois Democrats to have sponsored a failed 2010 resolution to lift sanctions against Zimbabwe cited in court documents.
