"An ethics watchdog group filed a complaint against Reps. Mike Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.) and Pete Sessions (R-Texas) for allegedly attending a fundraiser in the Capitol Visitors Center while the 112th Congress was being sworn in.
Fitzpatrick's office said the congressman welcomed the review.
Congressman Fitzpatrick welcomes this review,' spokesman Darren Smith said in a statement. 'The reception held last week in the Capitol Visitors Center was not a fundraiser. It was open and free to all comers and held in compliance with the House Ethics Manual.'"
