Democratic Rep. Sheila Cherfilus‑McCormick of Florida resigned from Congress just before the House Ethics Committee was to decide whether to sanction her for alleged theft of nearly $5 million in FEMA disaster‑relief funds and other campaign‑finance misconduct. Charged with misappropriating the money for luxury items and filing false reports, she faced likely expulsion and a federal trial postponed to February 2027.

Her resignation follows a week in which two other members of Congress also left office amid misconduct investigations.
