Legislator Misconduct Database
This page lists 509 instances of alleged and actual misconduct by legislators in the United States Congress from 1789 to the present.
The database below has been collected from public information about congressional investigations, criminal convictions, censures by and expulsions from Congress, and more — see the sidebar. The list is updated as new information becomes available.
Many entries on this page are politically motivated, especially ones that involve legislators investigating and judging other legislators through Congress’s power to set its own ethics rules. In some cases allegations are never proven. But legislators often prefer not to judge their peers, so that too may be political. And the types of misconduct that result in consequences have changed drastically over time. You must judge for yourself whether the conduct on this page truly is misconduct.
