NOTIFICATION OF INTENT TO OFFER RESOLUTION - Ms. Clarke (NY) notified the House of her intent to offer a privileged resolution pursuant to clause 2(a)(1) of rule IX. The Chair announced that a determination will be made at the time designated for consideration of the resolution.
H.Res. 889 is a resolution to censure Representative Cory Mills of Florida for conduct the resolution characterizes as bringing discredit to the House. The resolution cites multiple allegations: a February 2025 domestic violence incident involving assault of a 27-year-old woman at his residence (where DC police found probable cause for arrest but the U.S. Attorney declined to prosecute), a July 2025 report from a former romantic partner alleging he threatened to release intimate images and harm her future partners, and a resulting October 2025 court order protecting against dating violence. Additionally, the resolution addresses Congressional ethics concerns including potential financial disclosure violations and campaign finance irregularities, as well as disputed claims about his Bronze Star military award, with five former service members contradicting the accounts he submitted for the decoration. If passed, the censure would require Mills to appear in the House chamber for a public reading of the resolution and would remove him from the Committee on Armed Services.
