The House Ethics Committee released a statement on Monday, making clear that the investigation into domestic abuse claims against Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) is still very much ongoing and is being taken seriously.
“On November 19, 2025, the Committee announced that it had established an Investigative Subcommittee (ISC) to review various allegations relating to Representative Cory Mills,” said the statement. “These allegations are serious and complex, and the ISC is devoting significant resources to the investigation. The ISC has authorized more than 20 subpoenas, collected thousands of documents, and contacted dozens of witnesses. The ISC expects to receive additional relevant documents and testimony in the coming weeks and will take all necessary steps to conduct a full and thorough investigation.”
The statement continued that the subcommittee “is reviewing allegations that Representative Mills may have violated various laws, rules, or other standards of conduct,” including “a February 2025 incident, in which the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) responded to a report that Representative Mills had assaulted a woman with whom he was in a relationship. Although the MPD determined not to charge Representative Mills for assault following this incident, a decision not to bring charges is not a finding of innocence or ‘no wrongdoing.’”
“The review also includes the circumstances relating to a widely-reported October 2025 court-issued injunction against Representative Mills, which limited his engagement over social media and other forms of contact with a woman, including preventing Representative Mills from going within 500 feet of the woman’s residence or place of employment,” said the statement.
Police reportedly referred the incident at the time to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington D.C., but Trump’s acting prosecutor at the time, Ed Martin, declined to pursue it.
Earlier this year, there were talks in the House to vote on a bipartisan expulsion of lawmakers accused of serious misconduct, which in addition to Mills also included Reps. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) and Eric Swalwell (D-CA), who were accused of sexual offenses, and Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL), who was accused of stealing disaster relief funds.
All three of the other lawmakers have since resigned from office.
