The House Ethics Committee's vote to release the long-awaited ethics report into Matt Gaetz marks a significant shift, moving towards public transparency after a lengthy investigation.
Representative Gaetz criticized the Ethics Committee’s decision, expressing his frustration over not being able to defend himself against the findings since he is no longer in Congress.
Despite a failure in a House vote to make the Gaetz report public earlier, the bipartisan Ethics Committee's recent decision indicates changing dynamics regarding transparency in congressional ethics.
Speaker Mike Johnson's opposition to releasing the report highlights concerns among Republicans about setting a precedent for post-resignation investigations, emphasizing a divide within the party on the issue.
