>Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick democrat of Florida has officially resigned
Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-Fla.) resigned from Congress on Tuesday, 30 minutes before she was scheduled to appear before an ethics panel over her alleged theft of $5 million in taxpayer money to fund her political ambitions.
A House Ethics investigative subcommittee found last month that she violated more than two dozen laws, rules or regulations governing lawmakers and was weighing whether to recommend a censure — or potential expulsion.
“After careful reflection and prayer, I have concluded that it is in the best interest of my constituents and the institution that I step aside at this time,” the Florida Democrat informed House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.).
