A Republican congressman from New York could be in breach of House ethics rules after he hired both a woman he was having an affair and his fiancée's daughter to work in his office, The New York Times reported Monday.
Rep. Anthony D’Esposito, R-N.Y., comes from a family of local Republican officials, his break into politics thanks in part due to his connections with a group of powerful Republicans in Nassau County, who are famous for hiring their friends and family into local government.
