El congresista Chuck Edwards se retira de la reelección tras recomendación de censura

El congresista republicano Chuck Edwards anunció que se retira de su campaña de reelección después de que el Comité de Ética de la Cámara de Representantes recomendara una censura por acoso sexual a dos empleadas. El comité bipartidista había concluido previamente que Edwards mantuvo conductas inapropiadas y repetidas hacia dos jóvenes empleadas, creando un ambiente laboral hostil, y emitió la sanción más severa antes de la expulsión. Tras el informe, líderes republicanos de la Cámara instaron en privado al congresista a abandonar su candidatura, una petición que él negó.
