Investigators refer Meadows ethics inquiry to panel
An inquiry into whether Rep. Mark Meadows improperly paid his chief of staff for ten months after blocking him from congressional offices was referred to the House Ethics Committee. The Office of Congressional Ethics found substantial reason to believe the employee did not perform duties matching the $155,000 annual pay, with dates traced to October 2014 involving Meadows' Washington and Hendersonville offices.
