• In 2023, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy rejected the appointments of Adam Schiff and Eric Swalwell to the U.S. House Intelligence Committee, noting "It is my assessment that the misuse of this panel during the 116th and 117th Congresses severely undermined its primary national security and oversight missions - ultimately leaving our nation less safe. [Twitter @SpeakerMcCarthy 4:47 PM · Jan 24, 2023]
• Swalwell withdrew from the 2026 Gubernatorial primary on April 12th following accusations of sexual assault and harassment (which he denied). However, because Swalwell had already qualified for the ballot three weeks earlier, he remained on the ballot. The following day, Swalwell announced his impending resignation from Congress.
