Ruben Gallego, a U.S. Senator for Arizona, has faced investigations regarding campaign finance and allegations of misconduct, though he has not been charged with any crime.
In June 2026, the Senate Ethics Committee dismissed a complaint from Rep. Anna Paulina Luna alleging sexual misconduct and campaign finance violations, finding no evidence of wrongdoing. In July 2026, an additional ethics complaint was filed by the Center to Advance Security in America regarding his campaign spending and social media comments about President Trump.
Separately, the Department of Justice is reportedly investigating Gallego’s use of campaign funds for travel and personal expenses, which he maintains are permitted under Federal Election Commission rules for campaign-related activities. Additionally, a 2013 Arizona House investigation into allegations that he used a sexual slur was dropped after officials found insufficient information to corroborate the claims.
