    GOP firebrand vows to strip Swalwell and Gonzales of lifetime taxpayer-funded benefits

    Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) pledged to revoke the taxpayer-funded pensions of former Reps. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) and Tony Gonzales (R-Texas) following their resignations over sexual assault and harassment allegations. Both men are eligible for federal retirement benefits under FERS or CSRS, which would provide them with approximately $22,000 annually. Boebert argued that lawmakers who resign amid misconduct should not retain these benefits, though federal law requires criminal convictions to strip pensions.
