Mejia sworn in, tightening the GOP House majority as ethics and security fights intensify
TL;DR Summary
Analilia Mejia is sworn in as the newest House member, narrowing the GOP majority to 217-214-1. The day also features moves in the House Ethics Committee on Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, and a push by Republicans to rally support for a budget-neutral farm bill amid intra-party divisions. The Ethics panel released public guidance on handling sexual misconduct investigations, and lawmakers are watching the looming FISA 702 renewal, with broader debates over immigration funding, potential Iran AUMF actions, and tech/privacy provisions shaping Capitol Hill battles.
