多名知情消息人士透露，美国司法部正对深陷争议的佛罗里达州共和党联邦众议员科里・米尔斯展开调查。
消息称，调查部分聚焦其财务相关问题。相关消息最先由 MS NOW 媒体曝出。
目前暂无更多调查细节对外披露。
米尔斯周三发布声明，称这项调查是 “政敌编造的无耻谎言”。 “我从未听闻司法部正在调查我，也没有收到任何相关确认通知。倘若确实存在相关调查，我会全力配合。” 他补充表示：“我没有任何需要隐瞒的事情。”
米尔斯 2022 年当选联邦众议员，代表佛罗里达州第 7 选区，并在 2024 年成功连任，任职于众议院军事委员会与众议院情报委员会。
去年 11 月，众议院道德委员会投票成立专项调查小组，核查针对米尔斯的多项指控，包括涉嫌违反竞选资金法规、存在不当性行为以及约会暴力行为。
早在道德委员会启动调查之前，米尔斯去年就针对不当性行为指控发布过声明：“这些说法均为虚假陈述，歪曲了我与人交往的真实情况。” 他指控一名佛罗里达州党内初选对手 “利用司法体系，向击败他的我发起政治攻击。”
DOJ investigating Rep. Cory Mills: Sources
The Justice Department is investigating embattled Republican Florida Rep. CoryMills, according to multiple sources familiar with the situation.
The investigation is in part about his finances, according to sources.MS NOW first reported the investigation.
Further details about the investigation were not immediately clear.
In astatementposted Wednesday, Mills called the investigation a "desperate lie from my political opponents."
"I am not aware of any DOJ investigation, nor has there been any confirmation of such investigation, and I would fully cooperate if there was one," he said.
"I have nothing to hide," he added.
Mills was elected to the House to represent Florida's 7th District in 2022 and reelected in 2024. He serves on the House Armed Services and Intelligence committees.
Last November, the House Ethics Committee voted to establish an investigative subcommitteeto examine allegations that Mills violated campaign finance laws and engaged in sexual misconduct and dating violence.
Regarding allegations of sexual misconduct, Mills issued a statement last year, before the ethics committee probe was lauched, stating in part: "These claims are false and misrepresent the nature of my interactions," and he accused a former Florida primary opponent of "weaponizing the legal system to launch a political attack against the man who beat him."
