Gaetz investigation report divides Ethics Committee, shining light on panel

The House Ethics Committee has released a report on its investigation into Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), finding “substantial evidence” that he may have violated campaign finance laws and engaged in sexual misconduct. The report includes allegations that Gaetz paid for travel and lodging for women he met through websites that connect people for sexual encounters. Gaetz has denied the allegations and called the investigation a “partisan witch hunt.” The report is now being reviewed by the full House of Representatives, which could vote to censure or expel Gaetz if it finds that he has violated House rules. The investigation has divided the Ethics Committee, with Republicans largely defending Gaetz and Democrats calling for his removal from office.
