The Senate Ethics Committee dismissed a complaint against Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-Arizona) accusing him of inappropriate conduct and alleged campaign finance violations, the Arizona Democrat said on Monday.
“The dismissal by the Ethics Committee reaffirms what I have said about these accusations from the beginning: they were right-wing conspiracies peddled by far-right activists like Anna Paulina Luna, the White House, and their allies,” Gallego said in a statement.
In April, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Florida) accused him of “very disturbing” allegations in social media posts. Gallego, who has denied any wrongdoing, then established a legal defense fund in response.
