Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) is facing a renewed ethics complaint after the New York Democrat came under tough criticism for pulling a fire alarm in one of the Capitol office buildings ahead of a vote on a critical spending bill last month.

The complaint comes two weeks after Bowman was caught on camera pulling a fire alarm in the Cannon Office Building as lawmakers were being called to the House chamber for a vote, prompting some to accuse the Democrat of intentionally trying to stall legislative business.
