WASHINGTON, D.C. — A growing internal conflict within the Republican Party escalated Monday as Nancy Mace introduced a resolution to expel fellow Republican Cory Mills from the House.
Mace cited a range of allegations, including domestic violence, misrepresentation of military service, and financial misconduct. She argued that prior efforts to censure Mills and remove him from key committees were blocked by lawmakers from both parties, leaving expulsion as the next step. The matter remains under review by the House Ethics Committee, which has been investigating Mills since 2024.
Mills has denied the accusations and pushed back publicly, calling for a formal vote and criticizing Mace for what he described as ignoring due process. He also referenced an ongoing ethics investigation into Mace involving alleged financial misconduct.
The dispute reflects broader tensions within Congress, where ethics probes have recently intensified. Mace’s move comes as reports indicated Mills had considered filing his own expulsion resolution against her, highlighting the increasingly personal nature of the conflict.
Separately, scrutiny has extended to other lawmakers, including Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, who faces multiple ethics charges. House Speaker Mike Johnson has expressed support for her potential expulsion following findings by the ethics panel.
The House has not yet scheduled a vote on Mace’s resolution.
