Tony Gonzales and Eric Swalwell

As of April 2026, both Tony Gonzales and Eric Swalwell resigned from Congress amid serious misconduct allegations. Multiple reports confirm that both lawmakers faced investigations related to sexual misconduct, with allegations involving staff members or misconduct with women associated with them. Gonzales, a Republican from Texas, faced an ethics investigation over an alleged affair with a former staffer who died by suicide in September 2025, and the investigation was concluded before his resignation in April 2026 (NBC News, NBC News). Swalwell, a Democrat from California, faced allegations of sexual misconduct and was under an ethics investigation related to misconduct with staff members, which contributed to his decision to resign, effective April 14, 2026 (NBC News, AP News). Both resignations came just before potential expulsion votes and were part of broader accountability efforts on Capitol Hill related to misconduct allegations. No evidence of criminal charges, convictions, or corruption scandals beyond these misconduct allegations has been reported in the available sources.
