As of April 2026, both Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales have resigned from Congress amid misconduct allegations, specifically related to sexual misconduct with staff members. On April 14, 2026, they officially resigned to preempt potential expulsion votes and ongoing House Ethics investigations into these allegations (NBC News). The investigations reportedly involved accusations of sexual misconduct, including with women who had worked for them, which are violations of House rules (NBC News).
Eric Swalwell faced additional scrutiny, with reports indicating he was under investigation by the District Attorney over sexual assault claims, and more than a dozen staffers publicly condemned reports of misconduct, describing them as "abhorrent" (Daily Mail). Both lawmakers' resignations marked a significant moment in Capitol Hill's ongoing reckoning with sexual misconduct allegations, although the investigations and allegations have not resulted in criminal charges or convictions to date. Their resignations effectively ended the official ethics probes, but the allegations and reports remain part of the public record (AP News).
