Outgoing Hawaii Democratic Rep. Kai Kahele may have “misused official resources for campaign or political purposes,” according to the Office of Congressional Ethics, which recommended that the House Ethics Committee probe further.
Such actions could violate House rules or even federal law, the OCE concluded in a report released Monday.
The social media accounts of Kahele’s campaign “may have posted videos and photos that were photographed or filmed from official House buildings, rooms, and offices, used official graphics and social media posts, shared official communications, or promoted official events,” according to the report.
