Coalition emerges opposing ambassador appointment for Rahm Emanuel

President Biden is reportedly considering former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel to be ambassador to Japan or China.

In response, a coalition of organizations has submitted a public letter to the administration saying that they strongly oppose the nomination of Emanuel to be a U.S. ambassador, saying that he lacks the necessary ethics and integrity for the post.
