Matt Gaetz meets with GOP senators as ethics committee prepares to vote on misconduct report

Attorney General-designate Matt Gaetz returned to Capitol Hill to meet with Republican senators alongside Vice President-elect JD Vance. This visit comes as the House ethics committee prepares to vote on releasing a report about Gaetz's alleged misconduct. Some GOP senators have expressed skepticism about Gaetz's nomination, while others, like Sen. Lindsey Graham, support a fair process. Centrist senators are calling for transparency regarding the ethics investigation into Gaetz's alleged payments for sexual favors. Gaetz has denied all allegations against him, and the Justice Department did not charge him after a lengthy investigation. The ethics committee's report could influence the Senate's consideration of his nomination.
