Rep. Chuck Edwards, a Democrat currently serving in Congress, is under investigation by the House Ethics Committee for inappropriate behavior towards female staffers. Three sources claim that Edwards' behavior crossed professional boundaries and created an uncomfortable work environment. Edwards' office has a high turnover rate of more than double the House average of 27%, according to LegiStorm. The probe was prompted in part by Edwards' conduct towards two female staffers, according to a source familiar with the matter. Edwards has responded by saying he welcomes any investigation given his commitment to serving the people of Western NC. The ethics probe could potentially impact Edwards' reelection prospects.
