Overview

• The Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) has filed a formal ethics complaint with the Senate Ethics Committee regarding Senator Raphael Warnock's housing arrangement.
• Warnock has been living rent-free in a $989,000 luxury home owned by Ebenezer Baptist Church, where he serves as a part-time pastor, since 2023.
• The complaint alleges that Warnock failed to disclose the value of this benefit in his 2023 financial report, potentially violating the Ethics in Government Act.
• FACT argues the housing benefit is excessive given Warnock’s part-time role at the church and does not meet Senate ethics rules for customary allowances.
• Warnock’s office has declined to comment, and the Senate Ethics Committee has not yet responded to the complaint.
