Bill > HRes901

This resolution provides for the expulsion of Representative Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick from the United States House of Representatives, citing serious allegations of criminal conduct and ethical concerns. Specifically, it notes that a federal grand jury has indicted her on multiple felony charges, including the alleged theft of $5,000,000 in Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) disaster funds, money laundering, and misuse of these funds to support her congressional campaign. The resolution further details that these funds were allegedly diverted from a contract for COVID-19 vaccination staffing services and that the stolen money was purportedly used for personal loans to her campaign and to orchestrate illegal straw donor contributions. In addition to the criminal charges, the House Committee on Ethics has also been investigating allegations of campaign finance violations, improper disclosure of financial information, and accepting unauthorized services. The resolution concludes that these alleged actions, which include theft of government funds and a pattern of ethics concerns, demonstrate a gross abuse of public trust and undermine confidence in Congress, making her unfit to continue serving.
