The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

The House voted 413-2 Tuesday to censure Rep. Chuck Edwards, R-N.C., after an ethics investigation into his conduct toward two former female staffers. The House Ethics Committee found substantial evidence he engaged in persistent unprofessional and inappropriate conduct and violated rules related to sexual harassment and unwanted advances. The censure, the House’s strongest discipline short of expulsion, required Edwards to stand in the chamber while the condemnation resolution was read. Edwards and Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., cast the only no votes; Edwards has ended his reelection bid.
