House Ethics Officials Investigated Rep. Jim Costa for Alleged Inappropriate Behavior With Interns

The Ethics Committee ultimately dismissed the case, even as some lawmakers expressed concern about Costa’s alleged behavior, according to a source who was in the room during the deliberations.

House ethics officials investigated Rep. Jim Costa over allegations that the California Democrat made inappropriate advances to two congressional interns, NOTUS has learned.

A former House Democratic staffer filed a complaint with House ethics officials in early 2023 alleging that Costa behaved inappropriately and made advances toward her in February 2020, when she was an intern for a different lawmaker. The woman also alleged that she saw Costa behave inappropriately with another female intern in December 2021.

The woman recounted that Costa made her “uncomfortable,” in a virtual interview with Office of Congressional Ethics staff in June 2023.

NOTUS obtained a 98-page transcript of the interview and spoke with the woman and three people familiar with the accusations, all of whom were granted anonymity to speak about the sensitive matter. The investigation has not been previously reported. Investigations conducted by the Office of Congressional Conduct — at the time called the Office of Congressional Ethics — must be made public unless both the OCC and the Ethics Committee move to dismiss the case, which it did in the case of Costa.

Republican South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace named several lawmakers Monday who she claims used a congressional “slush fund” to cover up alleged sex scandals.

Mace said she uncovered 1,000 pages of documents detailing how certain lawmakers allegedly evaded consequences for sexual scandals, according to a Monday post on X. Mace originally subpoenaed the House Oversight Committee in March in light of a string of sexual scandals that resulted in two resignations from Congress.

Notably, Mace said that these documents are only from the last 22 years, claiming that all reports prior to 2004 were “destroyed.” Mace later named six lawmakers she alleges covered up their sex scandals with the “slush fund.”  ...
