This article is for subscribers only.
The U.S. House ethics committee announced a charge against Democratic Representative Maxine Waters of California, who is alleged to have intervened to help a bank in which her husband held stock.
The allegation marks the second time in two weeks that the ethics panel announced charges against a House Democrat. Last week the panel outlined 13 charges against Representative Charles Rangel of New York. Both likely will face trials this fall as the November elections approach.
