Senators Dick Durbin and John Cornyn have urged the House Ethics Committee to release its investigation results on former Rep. Matt Gaetz. This call comes as Gaetz resigned from Congress and is nominated for attorney general by President-elect Donald Trump. Durbin emphasized that Gaetz's resignation raises concerns about the ethics report's contents. He stated that the information is crucial for the Senate's confirmation process. The House Ethics Committee was investigating Gaetz for alleged sexual misconduct and other violations. Gaetz's resignation has paused the committee's inquiry, which could have led to the report's release.
