The House Ethics Committee has ruled that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez violated congressional gift rules during her high-profile appearance at the 2021 Met Gala, where she wore a 'Tax the Rich' dress. The panel found that she underpaid for the rental of the designer gown and related services, effectively accepting impermissible gifts. Ocasio-Cortez has been ordered to pay nearly $3,000 to resolve the issue, though the committee acknowledged she made efforts to comply with the rules. The controversy centers on the gap between what she paid and the fair market value of the dress and accessories. The case highlights the scrutiny faced by public officials regarding ethics and gifts.
