A complex web of financial and personal challenges has emerged for Republican Rep. Cory Mills of Florida, who is facing eviction from his luxurious Washington D.C. penthouse after allegedly accumulating over $85,000 in unpaid rent.

According to Daily Mail, Mills has failed to make timely rent payments for his $20,000-per-month apartment overlooking the Potomac River, with court documents showing he missed payments entirely for several months.

The property management company claims Mills has been consistently late on rent 18 times since moving in, leading them to initiate eviction proceedings after serving him with a notice for non-payment in January 2025.

Technical Issues or Tactical Delay

Mills maintains that technical difficulties with the online payment portal have prevented him from paying his rent. The congressman shared screenshots showing error messages when attempting to process payments.

The sophomore lawmaker insists he has made repeated attempts to resolve the payment issues, citing specific error codes that indicate problems with the Windows Installer Service and bank connectivity.

His office has yet to provide documentation proving these technical challenges, while property managers proceed with legal action to recover the substantial sum owed.

Personal Life Complications Surface

The eviction drama comes amid turbulent times in Mills' personal life, as he navigates divorce proceedings with his wife Rana Al Saadi.

Earlier this year, Mills was involved in a domestic dispute at the same penthouse apartment with Sarah Raviani, who identified herself as his girlfriend of over a year.

Though Raviani initially reported physical assault to police, she later recanted her statement and defended Mills' character.

Religious Identity Questions Emerge

Recent reports have raised questions about Mills' religious identity, adding another layer of complexity to his public persona.

The Blaze published claims that Mills converted to Islam when marrying his wife in a ceremony at an Islamic center near Washington D.C.

The wedding was reportedly officiated by Mohammad Al-Hanooti, a controversial figure alleged to have connections to terrorist organizations, though Mills maintains the ceremony was purely practical to facilitate his wife's travel to Iraq.

Resolution Remains Uncertain

As Mills faces mounting pressure over his rental obligations, the congressman's political and personal future hangs in the balance.

The Florida representative continues to insist technical glitches are behind his payment delays, sharing error messages and documentation of his attempts to resolve the situation.

With $85,000 in rental debt accumulating and eviction proceedings moving forward, Mills must navigate both his financial obligations and the growing scrutiny of his personal life while serving his constituents.
