Jimmy Gomez: “They lack credibility, right, because they say one thing and do another”

I am deeply sorry to my wife for the pain and embarrassment that I have brought into our lives.

I opposed this bill, especially as amended, because it expands the Department of Defense's authority into areas traditionally handled by civilian agencies.

I made personal mistakes outside my marriage. Although my actions were consensual in nature and haven’t violated the law or House Ethics rules, that doesn’t diminish the impact that these mistakes have made on those I care about the most.

I stand ready to cooperate with the Ethics Committee inquiry and provide it with whatever information it might need.
