Last week, Roll Call reported that there were 17 known federal investigations into members of the 109th Congress. We noted an 18th they missed — Rep. Katherine Harris (R-FL).
Since then, a new investigation has come to our attention: The FBI is investigating Colorado’s Rep. Bob Beauprez (R), following allegations he used restricted voter information as part of his gubernatorial bid.
That makes 19 known federal investigations into members of the 109th Congress. For those keeping score, the Republican members can claim 15 of the investigations; the Democrats, four.
