.JudiciaryGOP chair Jim_Jordan and HomelandGOP chair RepMarkGreen are facing an ethics complaint after using the indictment of Donald Trump to fundraise and rally their base ahead of the next presidential election.
The Congressional Integrity Project, a Democratic-aligned activist group, submitted the complaint to the Office of Congressional Ethics on Wednesday, accusing Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan and Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green of wrongfully using official business for campaign fundraising. The group pointed to instances in which the lawmakers used events to “promise politically motivated investigations and linked such investigations to their solicitation of campaign contributions.
Jordan then thanked supporters for their “hard-earned money,” which the group argued showed a direct link between the Judiciary Committee’s investigation into Bragg and solicitations made to the House Freedom Fund. Green also referred to a video clip of Mayorkas’s past testimony that the lawmaker said he would use against him. Members of the Congressional Integrity Project denounced those comments, arguing it was an example of Green granting “special access to his official conduct.”
