Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick Resigns Amid Ethics Committee Probe

Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, D-Fla., resigned from the House effective Tuesday as the Ethics Committee prepared to discuss punishment for violating more than two dozen House rules. She is the third House member to resign since April 13, following Reps. Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzalez. Cherfilus-McCormick was indicted in November on charges of stealing $5 million in Covid-19 disaster funds, some allegedly funneled to her 2021 campaign. She denies wrongdoing and claims the ethics process was unfair while a criminal case is pending.

Democratic Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick Resigns Amid Federal Charges, Ethics Investigation

Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, D-Fla., resigned from Congress on Tuesday just before the House Ethics Committee was set to meet on potential punishment, including expulsion. She faces federal charges alleging she and her brother stole $5 million in federal disaster funds related to COVID-19 vaccinations. The Ethics Committee found she used some funds for her first congressional campaign. She denies the allegations and called the process a "witch hunt." This marks the third April resignation, following Reps. Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales. Republicans now hold a 218-213 majority with four open seats.
