House Ethics Committee Republicans vote against releasing report on Matt Gaetz

Republicans on the House Ethics Committee voted against releasing a report on their investigation into former Rep. Matt Gaetz. The decision came during a closed-door meeting, with no Republican supporting the Democrats' push to make the report public. The committee, evenly split between five Democrats and five Republicans, will meet again on December 5 to discuss the matter further. Republican chair Rep. Michael Guest confirmed there is no agreement to release the report. Gaetz recently met with Republican senators regarding allegations of sexual misconduct. Some, like Sen. Lindsey Graham, criticized the scrutiny he faces, calling it a "lynch mob."
