The Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) has found probable cause to believe that Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Tex.) may have improperly used campaign funds for personal expenses. The House Ethics Committee is further investigating after a report from Nehls's own campaign committee, Nehls for Congress, indicated disbursements that may not align with legitimate campaign expenditures. The allegations suggest that Nehls could have violated both House rules and federal law, with specific claims that he pocketed $25,000 of campaign cash.
