The Chicago Tribune reports:
Desiree Rogers is stepping down as White House social secretary, an Obama administration official said today.
The Trib reminds us:
In 1997, she joined Peoples Gas.
When Rogers was president of Peoples from 2004 to 2008, the utility was sued by the city and state for "massive fraud" linked to the Enron scandal that allegedly led to widespread customer overcharges. The scheme pre-dated Rogers' term at the company's helm, but stonewalling of the investigation allegedly continued after she took over. Peoples agreed to a record $196 million in refunds.
That's the Chicago Way.
