Fein out at Exelon

Posted in:

Illinois

According to internal documents obtained by Crain’s, Chicago-based Exelon determined that David Fein, the company’s senior vice president in charge of state government relations and its most visible executive in Springfield, violated its code of conduct in his interactions with several women at the company.

* Steve Daniels in Crain’s with an update today…

David Fein, who led state government relations for Exelon, no longer is employed there. […]

“Over the weekend, Exelon and David Fein agreed that it is in our mutual best interest for David to leave the company,” Exelon said in a statement. It said it would have nothing to add “at this time.” […]

A spokesman had no immediate comment on whether Fein was granted a severance or who would now lead government relations in Illinois. Exelon is heading into a crucial fall veto session in Springfield in which it’s lobbying for the Clean Energy Jobs Act. The bill is aimed at promoting more renewable-energy development in the state, but also providing more revenue to three northern Illinois nuclear plants that Exelon has said are at risk of closure within the next few years.

First the Kevin Quinn-ComEd controversy, and now this at the Exelon mothership. It’s been a tough summer for Illinois’ top electric utility.

Funny how public exposure changed a slap on the wrist to a death sentence. Under the bus you go…we need our bailout.

You mean a corporation where the leadership throws money around to get what it wants also has a harassment problem - shocking!

You’re out. Finished at Faber. Expelled. I want you off this campus at nine o’clock Monday morning, and I’ve contacted your local draft boards and told them that you were all, all eligible for military service.

Thank you for the comic relief at the end of a Monday! Animal House is so incredibly quotable for so many purposes
