House Ethics Committee to release report on its Matt Gaetz investigation

The House Ethics Committee has voted to publicly release a report detailing the findings of an investigation into former Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., two sources familiar with the matter told NBC News.

Gaetz resigned from the House last month after President-elect Donald Trump said he intended to nominate Gaetz to be the next U.S. Attorney General.

The committee’s yearslong investigation included looking into allegations of sexual misconduct and illicit drug use against Gaetz.

Gaetz withdrew his name from consideration for the position just days after Trump’s announcement, after details emerged publicly about the testimony of women who spoke to the Ethics committee. He has denied any wrongdoing.

CNN was first to report the news.
