Chuck Edwards Drops Out Amid Harassment Claims as Max Miller Deadline Looms

Republican Rep. Chuck Edwards of North Carolina has dropped his re-election bid following a House Ethics Committee report. The panel found substantial reason to believe Edwards fostered a hostile work environment and engaged in sexual harassment by giving gifts and attention to two female staffers, recommending he face censure. While Edwards denied any wrongdoing, he will complete his current term ending in January. Separately, Rep. Max Miller faces pressure to withdraw amid domestic abuse allegations.
