Bring on the mugshot!
A member of the Squad is coming clean.
Washington, D.C. Assistant Attorney General Peter Saba had charged Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) following a brief investigation by U.S. Capitol Police into allegations Bowman, 47, pulled a fire alarm in the Cannon House Office Building.
Fox News has more:
The New York Democrat told reporters ahead of the arraignment that he is “taking responsibility” for causing the false alarm and that “Hell no” he didn't mean to pull the alarm.
“What I did was against D.C. law,” Bowman said. “As I said from the very beginning, I was not trying to disrupt any congressional proceedings, I'm glad the investigation yielded that.”
Bowman pulled the fire alarm ahead of a crucial vote as the GOP pushed a critical stopgap funding bill to avoid a government shutdown.
Bowman got a plea deal: write a letter of apology to the U.S. Capitol Police and pay a $1,000 fine.
On Thursday morning, Rep. Lisa McClain (R-Mich.) wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that she's introducing a resolution to censure Bowman and strip him of his committee assignments for the remainder of the 118th Congress.
