Lauren Boebert deactivates Cameo account amid ethics concerns over video messages

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) has deactivated her Cameo account, where she offered personalized video messages for $250. This decision follows concerns about potential ethics violations related to honoraria payments for lawmakers. Boebert's account was active for a short time, and she described herself as an "influencer" in her profile. The House Ethics Committee may review whether such video services are permissible for sitting lawmakers. Previously, Boebert had positioned herself as a political commentator. Her quick removal from the platform highlights ongoing scrutiny of lawmakers' outside earnings.
