Statement summary
In a revised press release from her congressional office, Rep. Lauren Boebert said she rejects the allegations as "utterly false" and that she has "never had a sexual relationship or an inappropriate romantic relationship with any member of my staff." The release also says Wheeler "also likely committed perjury and broke a federal law" when he certified his filing under penalty of perjury, and that the filing should not be treated as an investigation under House Ethics Committee Rule 15.
“I reject these baseless allegations as utterly false and there is no truth to them whatsoever. I have never had a sexual relationship or an inappropriate romantic relationship with any member of my staff—past or present. ... David Wheeler also likely committed perjury and broke a federal law when he certified under penalty of perjury that his lies were the truth and acknowledged that "knowingly making false statements to the Committee may violate federal law, including 18 U.S.C. § 1001."”
