Briefing

The Office of Congressional Ethics Board voted to refer allegations about Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick to the House Committee on Ethics for further review. The Board found substantial reason to believe she made unreported payments to a state political action committee potentially connected to her federal campaign, accepted or failed to report excessive campaign contributions, and failed to report transactions between her campaign and her businesses; it also found substantial reason to believe her congressional office received services from an uncompensated individual. The report recommends the Committee further review these matters.
