Video: 21 police officers charged with murder or manslaughter in 2021 Both parties signed a contract, and in 2021, Chehade sued to enforce the agreement after Newman didn’t hire him, alleging “that he decided not to run for the 2020 congressional seat in reliance of her promise to hire him as a foreign policy advisor and either District Director or Legislative Director in her congressional office,' according to the report. When Newman started her 2020 campaign, she made certain promises to her campaign’s foreign policy adviser, Iymen Chehade, about future employment in her congressional office, the report said. The House Ethics Committee, which can reprimand lawmakers and recommend punishment for misconduct, said it would investigate the allegations in the reports. Lamborn also 'may have solicited or accepted improper gifts from subordinates,” which could also violate federal law, the report said. The ethics office alleged in its report on Lamborn that he “may have misused official resources for personal and non-official purposes,' potentially violating House rules and standards of conduct.
