WASHINGTON — The House Ethics Committee launched a probe into Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) on Wednesday for alleged campaign finance violations, improperly receiving gifts and sexual misconduct.
The ethics panel announced that an investigative subcommittee would look into the accusations, which include having “failed to properly disclose required information on statements required to be filed with the House and breaking “campaign finance laws and regulations in connection with his 2022 and 2024 election campaigns.”
The allegations cited by the committee also concerned whether Mills “improperly solicited and/or received gifts, including in connection with privately sponsored officially-connected travel” or “received special favors by virtue of his position.”
And the investigative subcommittee will also look at whether the Florida Republican “engaged in misconduct with respect to allegations of sexual misconduct and/or dating violence” or “misused congressional resources or status.”
Reps for the congressman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
