Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) claims a faulty payment portal has prevented him from paying $85,000 in rent for his penthouse apartment – as he faces possible eviction.
The congressman’s luxury Washington, DC, apartment overlooking the Potomac River comes with a hefty $20,833 per month price tag.
The penthouse level of his building offers residents “access through private elevators for discrete comings and goings,” “captivating views in every residence,” “bold Italian cabinetry,” “Calacatta quartz countertops” and the services and amenities “of a world-class hotel,” according to the website.

The building was once home to former President Joe Biden’s granddaughter, Naomi.
Mills’ landlord contends Florida’s 7th District rep hasn’t paid his rent since March, documents filed last week in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia show.
