Ortega Under Ethics Probe After Domestic Allegations

Delaware Rep. Josué Ortega faces mounting scrutiny after police launched an investigation into an alleged domestic incident from May—no charges yet, but both parties filed protection orders. The House Ethics Committee has now opened its own probe, potentially paving the way for disciplinary action, as Democratic leaders call the allegations “deeply troubling.” With lawmakers nearing session’s end and election season looming, the confidential ethics probe could take weeks or months, and while Ortega has legal rights to defend himself, the committee will likely need to gather much of the evidence themselves. Updates are promised once the review wraps up. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
