House Ethics Committee recommends censure of Rep. Chuck Edwards over persistent, inappropriate conduct toward two young female aides — lavish gifts, private outings, and affectionate notes — despite his denial of romantic intent.

Edwards’ team argues the punishment is disproportionate and based on vague standards, not actual misconduct. A full House vote is still weeks away.
