Nancy Mace said she will introduce a resolution to censure Cory Mills over alleged misconduct, while House Republicans’ handling of a failed censure effort against Stacey Plaskett prompted accusations of a deal to shield Mills.
Nancy Mace announced that she plans to introduce a privileged resolution to censure Cory Mills for alleged stolen valor and other misconduct. Mills has denied some allegations made by an ex-girlfriend, and a Florida county judge recently granted her a restraining order. The article also reports that Washington police opened an investigation into an assault allegation against Mills in February; Mills’s accounts of his military service have also been disputed by other veterans.
A House resolution to censure Stacey Plaskett over her 2019 texts with Jeffrey Epstein failed by a vote of 209-214-3. Mace called on Speaker Mike Johnson to remove Mills from his committee assignments. Anna Paulina Luna and Marjorie Taylor Greene separately alleged that an agreement between lawmakers had prevented a vote on censuring Mills.

14 OUTLETSOutlets agree that Nancy Mace pursued a House resolution to censure fellow Republican Cory Mills and remove him from committee assignments, citing allegations against him. The House later referred the resolution to the Ethics Committee rather than immediately removing him. Left-leaning outlets present the move as Mace’s effort to secure Mills’s committee removal. Center outlets mostly emphasize the resolution’s path and related Ethics Committee action, while also reporting Mills’s denials. Right-leaning outlets place the bid amid Republican infighting and, in some accounts, foreground Mace’s allegation of a deal to protect Mills.
