Representative Chuck Edwards received a formal rebuke on the floor after a speech in which he apologized for his conduct but said it did not constitute harassment.
Representative Chuck Edwards, Republican of North Carolina, announced last month that he would not seek re-election after the House Ethics Committee recommended that he be reprimanded for his behavior.

Representative Ralph Norman’s recalcitrant posture may have widened the rift that cleared the way for President Trump’s endorsement of Senator Darline Graham.
Representative Jimmy Gomez of California acknowledged “personal mistakes” outside his marriage but denied breaking rules that bar relationships with a direct subordinate.
Mr. Gomez said that he regretted his mistakes, but he denied wrongdoing, saying that his actions “were consensual in nature and haven’t violated the law or House Ethics rules.”
