The House Ethics Committee Is BUSY: Another Congressman Accused Of Sexual Misconduct

Here we go again, as we add another congressman to a growling list of lawmakers accused of inappropriate sexual conduct. This time, it’s Democrat Jimmy Gomez from California, and while he admits to having made “mistakes outside his marriage” he insists he did not violate house ethics rules.  He says this because, the “mistakes” he’s referring to occurred with a House staffer, just not HIS staffer. It’s a loophole in the ethics rules, but the committee is looking into whether the incidents were consensual or unwelcome.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
