This page lists 493 instances of alleged and actual misconduct by legislators in the United States Congress from 1789 to the present.
The data has been collected from public information about congressional investigations, criminal convictions, censures by and expulsions from Congress, and more. The list is updated as new information becomes available.
An allegation of misconduct listed on this page does not imply guilt, unless it is followed by an official determiniation of guilt. Conversely, the absence of a determination of guilt does not imply innocence as Congress polices itself in many cases, and legislators are reluctant to punish their peers.
