Former U.S. Sen. Max Cleland, D-Ga., has withdrawn from the board of directors of a beleaguered Johnstown-based charity founded by a former top aide of Rep. John Murtha.

Cleland, a triple amputee and Vietnam veteran, said he has stepped down from the board of the Pennsylvania Association for Individuals with Disabilities.

“I’m not associated with PAID,” Cleland said Tuesday. “I am not interested in pursuing that relationship at all.”

Murtha spokesman Matthew Mazonkey said Murtha would not comment on the situation.
