NEW YORK — U.S. Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., won’t face any punishment or further investigation by the House Ethics Committee over his participation in a recent voting rights protest outside the Capitol.
The progressive lawmaker was arrested along with about two dozen activists when they briefly refused to obey police demands to move during a civil disobedience demonstration on Jan. 20, 2022.
He is expected to pay a $200 fine to resolve a minor trespassing charge, the report said.
