Johnson May Expel House Members After Swalwell, Gonzales Resignations

Two lawmakers—Rep

Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, who is facing a federal indictment and an ongoing House Ethics Committee investigation. The panel has reportedly substantiated the majority of allegations against her, including claims tied to misuse of funds.

Johnson indicated that expulsion could be the likely outcome in her case, stating that the findings against her are “alarming” and suggesting there is broad support within the chamber for removal.

“I believe it’ll be the consensus of this body that she should be expelled,” Johnson said, signaling that House leadership is prepared to move forward once the Ethics Committee completes its process.
