Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) broke House ethics rules when he pulled a fire alarm as the lower chamber was rushing a vote to avoid a partial government shutdown last month, according to a conservative group.

The Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) filed a complaint with the Office of Congressional Ethics on Thursday, saying that the far-left Bronx and Westchester congressman failed to conduct himself “in a manner that reflects creditably on the House,” according to a copy of the file obtained by The Post.

Photos have circulated showing Bowman pulling the alarm with the word “FIRE” clearly written on its face Sept. 30, with signs posted nearby that read “Emergency Exit Only!” and “Push until alarm sounds (3 seconds). Door will unlock in 30 seconds.”
