House Ethics Committee to Release Matt Gaetz Investigation Report

The report, expected soon, details allegations of sexual misconduct, drug use, and financial impropriety during Gaetz's time in Congress.

  • The House Ethics Committee voted secretly earlier this month to release its report on former Representative Matt Gaetz after previously deciding against public disclosure.
  • The investigation, spanning several years, examined allegations including sexual misconduct, drug use, misuse of campaign funds, and bribery, among others.
  • Gaetz, who resigned from Congress in November after being nominated for Attorney General by President-elect Donald Trump, denies all allegations and claims he has been fully exonerated by the Department of Justice.
  • The report's release marks a rare move, as ethics investigations are typically not disclosed after a member leaves Congress.
  • Gaetz has criticized the decision, stating he has had no opportunity to rebut the findings, while also admitting to past behavior he described as 'embarrassing but not criminal.'
