The House Ethics Committee has secretly voted to release a long-awaited ethics report detailing sexual misconduct allegations against former Rep. Matt Gaetz. The report is expected to be made public after the House's final day of votes this year. Gaetz recently withdrew his nomination as Attorney General under President-elect Donald Trump amid scrutiny surrounding the probe.
FILE - Former Rep. Matt Gaetz , R-Fla., closes a door to a private meeting with Vice President-elect JD Vance and Republican Senate Judiciary Committee members, at the Capitol in Washington, Wednesday, Nov. 20, 2024.
"The report is now expected to be made public after the House’s final day of votes this year as lawmakers leave Washington for the holidays, those sources said," "I had excellent meetings with Senators yesterday. I appreciate their thoughtful feedback - and the incredible support of so many. While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition. There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I'll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as Attorney General.
Gaetz appears to be one of the latest to hop on the trend, as an account was set up in his name last month.
