- Rep. Tony Gonzales said he will not resign after explicit text messages with his former aide were released and the aide had set herself on fire last year.
- Republican criticism has intensified, but so far only four House Republicans have publicly called for his resignation while party leaders and President Trump have not withdrawn endorsements.
- A narrow GOP majority in the House (218–214) and leadership caution have limited immediate action, and the primary is set for one week from today with early voting more than halfway complete.
- The Office of Congressional Conduct reportedly concluded an investigation but cannot transmit its report to the House Ethics Committee until after the primary, leaving final action pending.
"I am not going to resign," Gonzales told CNN Tuesday. "I work every day for the people of Texas, and there will be opportunity for all the details and facts. What you’ve seen is not all the facts."— Said by Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, to CNN on Tuesday in the wake of the release of explicit texts with a former aide.
