Paul Admits “Mistakes” Following Plagiarism Claims

HeadlineNov 06, 2013

Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky has announced a “restructuring” of his office practices after being accused of plagiarism. Over the past week, Paul has been found to have used other people’s language without attribution in a speech, an article, in congressional testimony, and in a section of his book. On Tuesday, Paul acknowledged his office has made “mistakes” and said he will ensure his public statements are properly footnoted from now on.
