House Speaker Johnson resists calls to make Matt Gaetz ethics report public

Al Jazeera  

The probe, slated to be released Friday, has been left in limbo after Gaetz resigned his role as House representative. The leading politician in the United States House of Representatives, Speaker Mike Johnson, has resisted calls to release a report examining allegations against Matt Gaetz, President-elect Donald Trump’s choice to be attorney general. “I’m going to strongly request that the Ethics Committee not issue the report because that is not the way we do things in the House,” said Johnson. In April 2021, just months after the Justice Department probe began, the House Ethics Committee started its own investigation into Gaetz’s behaviour. “The Committee is aware of public allegations that Representative Matt Gaetz may have engaged in sexual misconduct and/or illicit drug use, shared inappropriate images or videos on the House floor, misused state identification records, converted campaign funds to personal use, and/or accepted a bribe, improper gratuity, or impermissible gift,” a press release at the time read.
