Overview
- Rep. Nancy Mace filed a privileged resolution that compels a House vote within two legislative days to censure Rep. Cory Mills and remove him from his national security committees.
- Hours earlier, the House Ethics Committee created an investigative subcommittee to probe Mills over sexual misconduct allegations, campaign finance issues, disclosures, gifts and use of official resources.
- Mace’s measure cites a D.C. police report describing observed bruises in a February incident later walked back, as well as an October Florida protective order granted to a former girlfriend.
- Her filing also references Office of Congressional Conduct findings that businesses linked to Mills obtained federal munitions contracts while he served in Congress, and reporting that service members dispute his Bronze Star narrative.
- Mills denies wrongdoing and rejects claims of any backroom deal tied to recent floor maneuvers, as some Republicans press for accountability following a failed effort to censure Del. Stacey Plaskett.
