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.
