The Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) sent a complaint to the OCE's chief counsel that asked for an immediate probe into whether Schiff "abused official resources for political purposes" by using the video.

That video includes footage of Schiff speaking on the Senate floor during impeachment proceedings against former President Donald Trump.

"This is a clear violation of House ethics rules and federal law," said Kendra Arnold, executive director of FACT.

Schiff's campaign countered that the congressman didn't violate any ethics rules because the video was of him speaking in the Senate rather than from the House floor.

'Official resources' includes anything funded by taxpayers, such as a member's official website, social media accounts, and photographs and video from the House or Senate floor."

Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., is accused of violating House ethics rules by showing video of the Senate floor in his campaign ad.
