A woman has come forward with allegations of sexual misconduct against Democratic Rep. Jimmy Gomez. Her attorneys stated that she told the House Ethics Committee Gomez sexually harassed and assaulted her. The committee has opened an investigation into these allegations, which include claims of inappropriate sexual contact with a staffer.

Gomez has acknowledged making personal mistakes outside his marriage, but claims his actions were consensual and did not violate the law or House ethics rules. However, the woman's attorneys say her experience with Gomez was not consensual.

Further details on the allegations and investigation are available from the source.
