Inside the House Ethics Committee’s boys club: After a year where bad behavior by male members of Congress has been a dominant story, some are asking: Should there be more women on the House Ethics Committee?
NOTUS’ Oriana González and Kadia Goba report on how there has never been more than four women on the 10-member committee at once and detail at least one instance when women on the panel pushed to publicly admonish Rep. Jim Costa (D-California) but the committee never disclosed its investigation. Costa denied any wrongdoing and the committee voted to dismiss the case.
