Lauren Boebert becomes first sitting congress member to offer Cameo videos

U.S. Representative Lauren Boebert has become the first sitting member of Congress to offer personalized video messages on Cameo, starting at $250. She launched her account over the weekend, quickly stopping requests after just a few hours. Boebert's Cameo page describes her as a "freedom fighter" and does not use her official title. She must report any earnings, which are capped at $31,815 for outside income in 2023, to avoid conflicts of interest. Previous members of Congress, like George Santos and Matt Gaetz, have sold videos on Cameo after leaving office. Experts note that while Boebert's approach seems compliant, it raises questions about potential trends in Congress regarding outside income.
