The U.S. Senate Ethics Committee dismissed a complaint against Arizona Sen. Ruben Gallego on June 26, writing in a letter it found no evidence the Democrat violated Senate rules or federal law, the Arizona Mirror reported.
Florida Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna filed the complaint earlier this year, alleging Gallego had violated campaign finance laws and engaged in what the committee's letter described as "inappropriate conduct of a sexual nature."
Gallego responded Monday on social media, saying the dismissal reaffirmed his position that the accusations were "right-wing conspiracies peddled by far-right activists like Anna Paulina Luna, the White House, and their allies." He also called on Luna to apologize for "weaponizing the ethics process while refusing to investigate historic corruption that's making life harder for families."
