The House Ethics Committee is considering sanctions against Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) after finding 25 violations of ethics rules. She also faces federal criminal charges for allegedly stealing $5 million in COVID-19 relief funds.
Outlets across the spectrum report on Cherfilus-McCormick's resignation, which occurred just minutes before a scheduled House Ethics Committee hearing regarding 25 alleged violations. While mainstream sources like Axios and NPR focus on the $5 million in pandemic relief funds she allegedly misused, right-leaning outlets like Newsmax and The Floridian highlight her claims of a lack of due process and criticize Democratic leadership for failing to act sooner.
