Senators seek ethics investigation details on Matt Gaetz before attorney general confirmation vote

Republican senators are seeking information on the House Ethics Committee's investigation into Matt Gaetz, President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for attorney general. The investigation has looked into allegations of sexual misconduct and other issues since 2021. Gaetz resigned from the House, which complicates the release of the Ethics report. However, there is precedent for releasing such reports after a member's resignation. Some senators are considering issuing subpoenas to obtain the investigation's findings. Senators will question Gaetz during his confirmation hearings, focusing on his qualifications and past controversies. While some express skepticism about his nomination, no Republican senator has outright rejected him yet.
