Florida Democrat resigns from Congress after allegedly stealing millions

Florida Democrat Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick has resigned from Congress after allegedly stealing millions in COVID relief funds.

Cherfilus-McCormick, 46, has been accused of using millions that her family's health care company received during the COVID–19 pandemic to fuel her political campaign.

Last month, the bipartisan House Ethics Committee found that she had committed numerous violations of House rules and ethics standards, including the alleged theft of over $5 million in taxpayer funds - part of which was reportedly spent on a flashy diamond ring.

She was indicted by a federal grand jury in Miami in November 2025 and is awaiting trial. The ex-Congresswoman denies the charges against her and pleaded not guilty.
