House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says Democratic Rep. Donna Shalala of Florida will remain on a newly created congressional oversight commission amid calls for Shalala's removal after she failed to disclose stock sales last year she was required to report under the Stock Act.
Shalala, a former Health and Human Services secretary who won her congressional seat in 2018, told The Miami Herald on Monday that she sold multiple stocks in 2019 after she was sworn in to eliminate any potential conflicts of interest, but she did not report the transactions as required under the law. Last week, Pelosi named Shalala to the five-person Congressional Oversight Commission created under the CARES Act that will keep tabs on implementation of the $2.2 trillion stimulus package.
