- GOP firebrand vows to strip Swalwell and Gonzales of lifetime taxpayer-funded benefits
Rep. Lauren Boebert vowed to strip former Reps. Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales of their taxpayer-funded pensions after they resigned amid sexual assault and harassment allegations. Both are eligible for federal retirement benefits under FERS or CSRS, which would provide them with roughly $22,000 annually until age 62. Boebert argued that their resignation without expulsion or censure allowed them to retain benefits, which she deems unacceptable.
