This resolution, introduced April 20, 2026 by Representative Nancy Mace, would expel Representative Cory Mills from the House of Representatives. The text summarizes several reported incidents and findings: police were called to Mills's residence on February 19, 2025 in response to an alleged assault; police reports and later news reports said the alleged victim had visible injuries and that police found probable cause and sent an arrest warrant to the U.S. Attorney's Office. Media reports of body-camera footage from April 2026 are cited saying the footage showed injuries and that Mills told the alleged victim to give a different explanation for her bruises.
The resolution also describes a July 2025 report from a different former partner and an October 14, 2025 Florida court Final Judgment of Injunction for Protection Against Dating Violence. The Florida judgment found that Mills sent threatening and sexual messages, continued contacting the petitioner after repeated requests to stop, and that the petitioner experienced emotional distress and needed therapy and medication.
The resolution cites an August 2024 Office of Congressional Conduct report that found substantial reason to believe Mills may have entered into federal contracts while a Member, may have misstated financial disclosures, and may have accepted improper campaign funding. The text also describes questions raised by others about the accuracy of Mills's military service and Bronze Star documentation. The resolution concludes that these matters "affect the dignity and integrity of the proceedings of the House and bring discredit upon the House" and, citing the Constitution, declares that Representative Cory Mills is expelled.
If the House adopts this resolution, Representative Cory Mills would be expelled and no longer serve in the House. The resolution text does not describe a process for replacing him or any other consequences beyond expulsion. The resolution was referred to the House Committee on Ethics and is listed as in progress.

Proponents say the listed reports, court findings, and the Office of Congressional Conduct report show behavior and conflicts that damage the House's dignity and integrity. They argue those findings justify using the Constitution's power to expel a Member.
