In one of its first actions of the new Congress, the House Ethics Committee announced Thursday it would conduct a further review of allegations against Rep. Cory Mills.
It comes after an August 2024 referral from the Office of Congressional Conduct, which found the Florida Republican may have omitted or misrepresented information in financial disclosure reports and kept contracts with the federal government.
Members of Congress can’t personally benefit from holding government contracts, according to federal law. The referral recommends further scrutiny of companies owned by Mills that manufacture munitions that went to federal law enforcement.
