“The House Ethics Committee said Monday it’s reviewing allegations that Rep. Jimmy Gomez, D-Calif., ‘may have engaged in sexual misconduct in violation of the Code of Official Conduct,’ including ‘engaging in inappropriate sexual contact with a House staffer.’ … The married Gomez, who formed a Congressional Dads Caucus back in 2023, said in a statement that he had ‘made personal mistakes outside my marriage’ and would cooperate with the probe. ‘Although my actions were consensual in nature and haven’t violated the law or House Ethics rules, that doesn’t diminish the impact that these mistakes have made on those I care about the most,’ the statement said.” (08/17/26)
