House bats down Mace effort to reveal sexual misconduct allegations against members of Congress
The House voted 357-65 to refer Rep. Nancy Mace's resolution on public disclosure of sexual misconduct complaints to the Ethics Committee amid ongoing investigations.
- On Wednesday, the House voted 357-65 to refer Rep. Nancy Mace's resolution, effectively quashing her effort to force public disclosure by the U.S. House Committee on Ethics.
- In recent weeks, Mace's push followed reporting that Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-TX, allegedly had an affair with former staffer Regina Ann Santos-Aviles who later died, prompting a House Ethics Committee probe.
- Only 65 members—38 Republicans and 27 Democrats—voted against referring the resolution, and Rep. Nancy Mace, R-SC, published an alphabetical list naming the 357 members who voted to refer it on Wednesday.
- House Ethics Committee leaders, including Chairman Michael Guest, R-Miss., and Ranking Member Mark DeSaulnier, D-Calif., warned forced disclosures could chill victim cooperation, and referral likely ensures the resolution dies.
- House records show Rep. Nancy Mace, R-SC, pushed transparency efforts, including a subpoena on Epstein files, amid calls for disclosure of roughly $17 million in sexual harassment settlements, fueling accountability debates.
