Controversial Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) is facing the prospect of spending up to twenty days in jail after being charged with driving with a revoked drivers license.
The Asheville Citizen-Times reports that Cawthorn was pulled over by the highway patrol earlier this month in Cleveland County, North Carolina, where he was found to be driving with a revoked license.
Additionally, reports the Citizen-Times, Cawthorn faces two pending violations for speeding: One that occurred last October where he drove 89 miles per hour in a 65-mile-per-hour zone, and another earlier this year where he drove 87 miles per hour in a 70-mile-per-hour zone.

The newspaper has also found that Cawthorn was charged in 2017 with driving with a revoked license, although that charge was eventually dismissed.
Driving with a revoked license is a Class 3 misdemeanor in Cawthorn's home state of North Carolina, and he could face a maximum sentence of 20 days in jail if he's found guilty.
