Update, 5:08 p.m. EST: The Hill reported that McAllister released a statement saying he was “very sorry”
over the incident, but did not want to address it with a “political statement.”
“There’s no doubt I’ve fallen short and I’m asking for forgiveness,” the statement read. “I’m asking for forgiveness from God, my wife, my kids, my staff, and my constituents who elected me to serve. Trust is something I know has to be earned whether your a husband, a father, or a congressman. I promise to do everything I can to earn back the trust of everyone I’ve disappointed.”
