Briefly

The House Ethics Committee is at a crossroads. Members say they're ready to make some changes.
"I've been asked, you know, could the Ethics Committee, if there were additional resources provided to the committee, would that help us move cases through quickly? And of course, the answer to that is yes. But you know, it has to be up to leadership."
"I want people to take the Ethics Committee more seriously. The reality is we are still too slow, and I believe that we should be moving faster."
"Now attention is turning to Rep. Cory Mills, who stands accused of numerous violations, including illicitly engaging in government contracts while in federal office."
Rep. Suhas Subramanyam emphasizes the need for the Ethics Committee to operate more efficiently. Ethics Chair Michael Guest acknowledges that additional resources could expedite case processing. Recent cases involving misconduct allegations against several representatives highlight the committee's struggles. Notably, Gonzales and Swalwell resigned before the committee could act, and Cherfilus-McCormick stepped down just before a meeting regarding her campaign violations. Attention is now on Rep. Cory Mills, who faces multiple accusations but remains in office as his case remains unresolved.
