Anna Paulina Luna Pushes for Multiple Expulsion Votes. Will Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick and Cory Mills Be Targeted?
The motions could force floor votes as the House Ethics Committee weighs sanctions against Cherfilus-McCormick and continues its investigation into Mills.
- On Tuesday, U.S. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna announced plans to file expulsion motions against two Florida lawmakers—one Democrat and one Republican—intensifying calls for accountability on Capitol Hill.
- Following Monday's surprise resignations of Rep. Eric Swalwell and Rep. Tony Gonzales amid allegations of sexual misconduct, pressure intensified to remove other ethically challenged members from Congress.
- House Ethics Committee findings determined Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick committed 25 violations, including allegations involving roughly $5 million in disaster relief funds, though she maintains her innocence.
- Speaker Mike Johnson stated he believes expelling Cherfilus-McCormick reflects House consensus but remained noncommittal about Rep. Cory Mills, saying he would review Mills's ongoing ethics investigation.
- Expelling members requires a two-thirds House majority vote, a significant hurdle given Republicans hold only a 217-214 majority and leaders remain hesitant to lose additional seats.
