Republican Congressman Tony Gonzales of Texas and Democratic Congressman Eric Swalwell of California both announced Monday they will resign from Congress amid mounting sexual misconduct allegations. Gonzales admitted to an affair with a former staffer who later took her own life, and faces additional accusations of sending explicit messages to a campaign aide. Meanwhile, Swalwell is facing allegations from multiple women, including a former staffer who says he twice raped her while she was heavily intoxicated. There are now growing calls in Congress for Republican Cory Mills and Democrat Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, both from Florida, to resign. Mills is facing a House Ethics investigation into domestic violence and campaign finance violations. Meanwhile, federal prosecutors and a House Ethics subcommittee have both accused Cherfilus-McCormick of illegally funneling millions of dollars in federal disaster relief funds into her own congressional campaign.
