AOC ethics probe is NY Democrat's latest brush with scandal
Fox News
The congressional ethics investigation into Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the New York Democrat's latest brush with scandal since being elected to the House.
While it's not clear what the committee is investigating, the high-profile Ocasio-Cortez and her team have been the subject of several complaints over the last few years. In 2019, her chief of staff at the time was investigated by a federal agency after the center-right National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC) filed a compliant. Haris Alic is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital covering Congress.
The NLPC alleged that, between 2016 and 2017, a political action committee run by the aide had transferred more than $1 million to shell companies that were also controlled by the staffer. The conservative watchdog group alleged the transfers may have skirted federal election rules.
