Story summary

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett, while still in office, offered government relations and lobbying services on her campaign-funded website. The site featured a "Political Consultant- Book Now" button that led users to options including government relations and lobbying, among other consulting services. After Zeteo reported this, the offering was removed from the website. Crockett's spokesperson did not respond to inquiries about the matter. This move raises ethical questions and possibly legal concerns regarding congressional conduct, as it is unclear whether such actions align with guidelines prohibiting legislators from engaging in lobbying while in office.
