斯沃威尔、冈萨雷斯、谢尔菲勒斯-麦科米克和米尔斯议员均面临被逐出议会的可能

针对多名身陷丑闻的国会议员的强制罢免行动正愈演愈烈，本周已有多场罢免投票提上日程。
当地时间周二众议院结束两周休会复会后，民主党籍加州议员埃里克·斯沃威尔和共和党籍德克萨斯州议员托尼·冈萨雷斯预计将立即面临驱逐威胁。
周日退出加州2026年州长竞选的斯沃威尔面临多起性侵和行为不端指控，其中至少一起涉及一名前助手。曼哈顿地区检察官办公室已就据称发生在纽约市的一起事件启动刑事调查。
斯沃威尔多次称这些指控“不实”，但他周日承认自己判断不当。他已承诺将积极为自己辩护。

两名民主党议员呼吁斯沃威尔退出国会，其参选加州州长引发争议
曾承认与一名后来自焚身亡的女职员有婚外情的冈萨雷斯，在众议院共和党领导层要求其暂停竞选活动后，于今年3月放弃了连任竞选。他目前正接受众议院道德委员会调查。
佛罗里达州共和党议员安娜·保利娜·卢纳周末表示，如果斯沃威尔不辞职，她将提出一项驱逐斯沃威尔出议会的决议。与此同时，新墨西哥州民主党议员特蕾莎·莱杰·费尔南德斯誓言将起草一项驱逐冈萨雷斯的议案。
这两位女议员表示，她们支持将这两名男子逐出众议院。两党中越来越多的议员似乎也持相同观点。
“这项投票付诸表决时，我会对两项决议都投赞成票，”佛罗里达州共和党议员拜伦·唐纳兹周日在NBC的《与媒体见面》节目中表示，“这些指控令人发指，它们玷污了国会的公信力。这些行为完全不可接受。在我看来，两位先生都应该卷铺盖回家。”
“我认为，我们相信女性非常重要，我们要向国会山和全国人民表明，我们不会容忍这种行为，”华盛顿州民主党议员普拉米拉·贾亚帕尔也说道。

佩洛西及加州民主党议员谴责斯沃威尔，称其性侵指控“不可辩护”
罢免国会议员门槛极高，目前尚不清楚这两项罢免决议能否获得通过所需的三分之二多数票。要成功罢免议员，需要相当一部分议员投票支持罢免本党议员。
2023年被逐出众议院的前纽约州共和党议员乔治·桑托斯是最近一位被罢免的议员。2025年，在因电信诈骗和身份盗窃罪名成立并被判处七年以上监禁后，唐纳德·特朗普总统赦免了桑托斯。
众议院共和党和民主党领导层尚未就罢免斯沃威尔和冈萨雷斯的普通议员提案置评。
佛罗里达州民主党议员希拉·谢尔菲勒斯-麦科米克和佛罗里达州共和党议员科里·米尔斯也可能成为罢免决议的目标，但到目前为止，只有少数议员表示支持罢免本党议员。
“他们应该立即辞职。如果他们不辞职，我们就应该罢免他们所有人，”南卡罗来纳州共和党议员南希·梅斯周日在社交媒体上写道，她指的也是斯沃威尔和冈萨雷斯。
谢尔菲勒斯-麦科米克被指控挪用超过500万美元救灾资金用于其国会竞选和个人生活，面临超过50年的监禁。
今年3月，众议院道德裁决小组委员会在一项独立于联邦刑事起诉的调查中认定她违反了二十多项规定。该小组预计将于本月晚些时候正式建议处罚措施，处罚可能严重至罢免。
众议院民主党领导层表示，在道德委员会公布决定之前，他们不会对谢尔菲勒斯-麦科米克做出评判。

曾在陆军服役的战斗老兵米尔斯也面临诸多争议，包括被指控谎报兵役经历、家庭暴力、威胁发布前女友的露骨照片，以及利用委员会职权为其拥有的国防承包公司谋利。他也正成为众议院道德委员会调查的目标。
两位议员均否认有任何不当行为，并正在参加连任竞选。
Lawmakers put expulsion threats atop House agenda as return sets up high-stakes week
April 13, 2026 9:20am EDT / Fox News
Reps Swalwell, Gonzales, Cherfilus-McCormick and Mills all face potential removal from the chamber
By Adam Pack Fox News
The push to forcibly remove multiple scandal-ridden members of Congress is picking up steam with several potential expulsion votes on deck this week.
Reps. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., and Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, are expected to face an immediate expulsion threat when the House returns from a two-week recess on Tuesday.
Swalwell, who dropped out of California’s 2026 gubernatorial race Sunday, is facing multiple sexual assault and misconduct allegations, including at least one involving a former staffer. The Manhattan district attorney’s office has also opened a criminal investigation into an incident that allegedly occurred in New York City.
Swalwell has repeatedly characterized the allegations as “false,” though he acknowledged a lack of judgment on Sunday. He has pledged to vigorously defend himself.

TWO DEMOCRATIC REPS CALL FOR SWALWELL TO EXIT CONGRESS AS CONTROVERSY SWIRLS AROUND HIS BID FOR CA GOVERNOR
Gonzales, who has admitted to having an affair with a staff member who later died by setting herself on fire, dropped his re-election bid in March after House GOP leadership called on him to suspend his campaign. He is under investigation by the House Ethics Committee.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., said over the weekend that she would introduce a resolution to expel Swalwell from the chamber if he does not resign. Meanwhile, Rep. Teresa Leger Fernandez, D-N.M., is vowing to draft a measure that would expel Gonzales.
The female lawmakers have said they support expelling both men from the House of Representatives. A growing share of lawmakers in both parties appear to share that view.
“That vote comes to the floor, I will be voting yes on both measures,” Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday. “These allegations are despicable, and they demean the integrity of Congress. These things are just completely unacceptable. And as far as I’m concerned, both gentlemen need to go home.”
“I think that this is very important that we believe women and that we show people across the Capitol and across the country that we will not accept this kind of behavior,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., also said.

PELOSI, CALIFORNIA DEMS SLAM SWALWELL OVER BOMBSHELL SEXUAL ASSAULT ALLEGATIONS: ‘INDEFENSIBLE’
Expelling a member of Congress is an incredibly high bar, and it is currently unclear whether both expulsion resolutions can obtain the two-thirds majority required to pass. To be successful, a significant portion of lawmakers will have to vote in favor of removing a member of their own party.
Former Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y., who was removed from the House in 2023, is the most recent member to be expelled. President Donald Trump pardoned Santos in 2025 after he was convicted of wire fraud and identity theft and sentenced to more than seven years in prison.
Both House Republican and Democratic leadership have yet to comment on rank-and-file efforts to expel Swalwell and Gonzales.
Reps. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, D-Fla., and Cory Mills, R-Fla., could also become potential targets of expulsion resolutions, though just a handful of members have thus far signaled they would support the removal of the lawmaker from their own party.
“They should resign IMMEDIATELY. If they don’t, we should expel all of them,” Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., wrote on social media Sunday, referring to Swalwell and Gonzales, too.
Cherfilus-McCormick is facing more than five decades in prison after allegedly funneling more than $5 million in disaster relief money to fund her congressional campaign and personal lifestyle.
A House Ethics adjudicatory subcommittee in March found her guilty of more than two dozen violations as part of an investigation separate from the federal criminal indictment. The panel is expected to formally recommend its suggested punishment later this month, which could be as severe as expulsion.
House Democratic leadership has indicated they will withhold judgment on Cherfilus-McCormick until the ethics panel announces its decision.

Mills, a former Army combat veteran, has faced myriad controversies, including allegedly misrepresenting his military service, domestic violence and threatening to release sexually explicit photos of a former girlfriend, and abusing his committee assignments to benefit defense contracting firms he owns. He is also the target of a House Ethics Committee investigation.
Both lawmakers have denied any wrongdoing and are running for re-election.
