Representative Tony Gonzales is facing new accusations of sending lewd text messages to a former political director during his 2020 congressional campaign.These allegations emerged following the suicide of Regina Santos-Aviles, another staff member with whom the Texas Republican had admitted to having an affair.While House Speaker Mike Johnson and the Republican Party have called for his resignation, the lawmaker refuses to step down before his term ends in January.An expedited ethics investigation into his conduct is currently proceeding after he withdrew from his re-election bid following the initial public scandal.
