Jimmy Gomez: “My constituents need to know whether the President has financial ties that are causing him to protect his own bottom…”

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

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

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.

As I said when the existence of an inquiry was first reported two months ago in the media, years ago, I made personal mistakes outside my marriage.
