Lauren Boebert shuts down Cameo account after two days amid ethics scrutiny

businessinsider.com

Rep. Lauren Boebert has removed her Cameo account just two days after launching it. She offered personalized video messages starting at $250 but faced scrutiny over potential violations of House ethics rules regarding outside income. Boebert was the first sitting member of Congress to join Cameo. Reports suggest her account was deactivated on Monday evening, with no trace found by Tuesday morning. House rules prohibit members from receiving payment for appearances or speeches. The House Ethics Committee has not yet addressed this issue, leaving the situation unclear for other members considering similar ventures.
