Eric Swalwell resigned from Congress following numerous sexual misconduct allegations from at least six women. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is investigating these claims. Lonna Drewes has publicly accused Swalwell of assaulting her in 2018. Prior to his resignation, Swalwell withdrew from the California governor race.
