"The Committee considered Representative Polis' participation in the video produced by Riot Games and the clothing event with Ninox, and concluded that Representative Polis did not use official resources for a commercial purpose or violate House Rules regarding official endorsement of a commercial entity," the ethics panel said in a statement released on Monday.
