in 1986, weaver was selected as the democratic nominee for united states senate and was to face incumbent republican bob packwood. after receiving the nomination, however, weaver was the subject of a house ethics committee probe into his campaign finances, and withdrew his candidacy when it became apparent that he would lose the general election. oregon state representative rick bauman was selected to replace weaver on the ballot, and lost to packwood. the house ethics committee ruled that weaver had used campaign money for personal investments, in violation of house rules. eventually it was discovered that the report had included errors. the house ethics committee later stated that weaver had not violated the law. weaver served out his term and was succeeded by his aide, peter defazio.
