Assessments
The promise is conditional: Donalds would support an expulsion vote only if the House Ethics Committee completed its investigation of Rep. Cory Mills and issued a report. The official Ethics Committee record through August 13, 2026 shows the Mills matter remained under review or investigative-subcommittee work, with no completed Mills committee report in the reports archive. Official House floor records also show no qualifying Mills expulsion vote after such a report. Because the triggering condition has not occurred, Donalds has not yet had a clear opportunity to fulfill or fail the promise.
The promise is conditional on the House Ethics Committee completing its investigation of Rep. Cory Mills and issuing a report. The official committee updates through May 11, 2026 show the Mills matter was still in the investigative-subcommittee stage, with subpoenas, document collection, witness contacts, and expected further testimony still ongoing. The committee reports archive and secondary reporting do not show a completed Ethics Committee report or a subsequent qualifying expulsion vote. Because the triggering condition has not occurred, Donalds's promise is not yet testable rather than delivered or failed.
