U.S. Representative Mike Collins (R-GA) is under investigation by the House Ethics Committee, but the subject of the probe is still "unclear."
The U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Ethics made the announcement on Friday, saying that Collins and his chief of staff are both under investigation at this time.
"Pursuant to House Rule XI, clause 3(b)(8)(A), and Committee Rules 17A(b)(1)(A) and 17A(c)(1), the Committee on Ethics has extended the matter regarding Representative Mike Collins, which was transmitted to the Committee by the Office of Congressional Conduct on October 7, 2025," the committee wrote. "The Committee notes that the mere fact of a referral or an extension, and the mandatory disclosure of such an extension and the name of the subject of the matter, does not itself indicate that any violation has occurred, or reflect any judgment on behalf of the Committee."
The committee didn't announce the source of the probe, but did note, "The Committee will announce its course of action in this matter on or before Monday, January 5, 2026."
Popular publisher Quiver Quantitative wrote, "BREAKING: The House Ethics Committee is investigating Representative Mike Collins. Unclear what the investigation is for. Worth noting that Collins is the most active crypto trader in Congress."
