WASHINGTON
The House Ethics Committee says it is extending an investigation of Republican Rep. Peter Roskam of Illinois.

The committee says it received a report from the Office of Congressional Ethics, an independent investigative body, and has decided to extend its investigation of Roskam. The committee says it will announce its course of action on Roskam in September and says extending an investigation does not indicate that a violation has occurred.

The committee did not indicate what the OCE report included or what was investigated.
