House Ethics Committee meets to discuss report on Matt Gaetz allegations

forbes.com

The House Ethics Committee will meet today to discuss a report on former Rep. Matt Gaetz amid allegations of sexual misconduct. This follows new claims about Gaetz's involvement in "sex parties" with young women. The Justice Department previously investigated Gaetz but did not file charges, citing credibility issues with key witnesses. The committee's report may include testimonies related to these allegations, but it is unclear if it will be made public. Gaetz has denied all allegations and was recently nominated by President-elect Donald Trump for attorney general. His confirmation faces potential opposition from some Republican lawmakers and Democrats, who are preparing to challenge his nomination.
