What happened
The Senate Ethics Committee dismissed a misconduct complaint against Sen. Ruben Gallego, saying it found no evidence that the Arizona Democrat violated federal law, Senate rules or standards of conduct. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., had brought allegations involving campaign finance violations and inappropriate sexual conduct, but the bipartisan panel led by Sens. James Lankford and Chris Coons closed the matter after its review. Gallego released the committee’s letter and demanded an apology from Luna, while Luna continued to attack him publicly. The dismissal removes the Senate ethics cloud over Gallego even as related political attacks continue.
