House Ethics Republicans delay release of report on Matt Gaetz's alleged misconduct

Republicans on the House Ethics Committee voted against releasing a report on former Rep. Matt Gaetz's alleged sexual misconduct. This decision is temporary, as the committee plans to meet again on December 5 to reconsider. The committee's vote was split along party lines, with no Republican supporting the release. Gaetz is currently seeking confirmation as attorney general, facing scrutiny from Senate Republicans and ongoing investigations into his conduct. Senate Republicans are preparing for a confirmation battle, with some expressing support for Gaetz. Meanwhile, Democrats are pushing for access to the full investigation file related to Gaetz's allegations.
