Multiple House Democrats have called for the resignation or expulsion of Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) after the House Ethics Committee found her guilty of over 50 cases of wrongdoing.

Cherfilus-McCormick has been accused of stealing $5 million in funds from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and using some of those funds for her campaign. After a rare public hearing on Thursday, the committee found that 25 of the 27 counts levied against Cherfilus-McCormick “had been proven.”
