Democrats Poised for Expulsion Vote Over Cherfilus-McCormick Ethics Case
TL;DR
More than 30 House Democrats say they’re prepared to vote to expel Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick after the House Ethics Committee weighs its findings; expulsion would require about 80 Democratic votes, with leadership weighing how to respond but many lawmakers ready to back it if the committee recommends it. Cherfilus-McCormick denies wrongdoing in a criminal case tied to alleged laundering of COVID relief funds and has pleaded not guilty; some predict she may resign rather than face a vote.
