A special subcommittee has been formed to investigate whether Florida
Democratic Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick violated campaign finance laws
in a 2022 special election or broke House rules while running her official
office, leaders of the House Ethics Committee said Wednesday.

A bipartisan panel of four of her House colleagues will review campaign
finance allegations connected to Cherfilus-McCormick’s’s 2022 special
election victory and a reelection campaign later in 2022, according to the
statement from the committee’s chairman, Michael Guest, R-Miss., and
ranking member, Susan Wild, D-Pa.

The panel also will look at whether Cherfilus-McCormick “failed to
properly disclose required information on statements required to be filed
with the House; and/or accepted voluntary services for official work from
an individual not employed in her congressional office.”

Details of the allegations were not released.

Cherfilus-McCormick’s spokesman emphasized in an emailed statement that
the committee announcement said the creation of the panel “does not itself
indicate that any violation occurred. Regardless, the Congresswoman takes
these matters seriously and is working to resolve them.”

Cherfilus-McCormick had not raised more than $70,000 in challenging Rep.
Alcee Hastings in the 2018 and 2020 primaries. After his April 2021 death,
she ran in a crowded field in the November 2021 special primary and
initially loaned her campaign $3.7 million, but paid $2 million of it back
to herself. She won that primary by just five votes.

After she took office, she aired television commercials funded by her
official House account and a 2022 report by Inside Elections’ Jacob
Rubashkin noted the airtime appeared to have been bought using a
consultant, rather than an official staff member.

New York Republican Rep. Andrew Garbarino will chair the subcommittee,
while Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, D-Pa., will be the ranking member. Also
serving will be Reps. Cliff Bentz, R-Ore., and Troy Carter, D-La.

The committee leaders’ statement said the panel was appointed after the
Office of Congressional Ethics, which is made up of appointees, referred
the case to the full committee, a panel with the power to recommend
sanctions.
