Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., pleaded not guilty Wednesday to federal corruption charges in a New York court, which include bribery, conspiracy, fraud and making false statements. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has not called for Menendez to resign, and the judge approved the conditions for his release, including a $100,000 personal recognizance bond. If convicted, Menendez could face up to 20 years in prison, and the case is being closely watched by both Democrats and Republicans.
