Ethics panel urges censure of Rep. Edwards

Fox News' Bill Melugin posted on X: "NEW: The House Ethics Committee is recommending that Rep. Chuck Edwards (R-NC) be censured after their investigation found he created a hostile work environment for two female staffers due to sexual harassment and inappropriate behavior, including missing votes one evening to visit a female staffer's house to "perform chores like yard work, decorate her Christmas tree, and pick her up and drop her off for events and activities with his driver." The committee found that Rep. Edwards showered the staffers with lavish gifts, brought them on trips, texted inappropriately, and apparently deleted text messages that the committee was unable to recover. "
