The U.S. House Ethics Committee has reversed its earlier decision and voted to release its report on former Representative Matt Gaetz, which is expected to be made public within days, after the House's final votes this year. The report concludes a multi-year investigation into Gaetz's conduct, including allegations of sexual misconduct, drug use, sharing inappropriate images on the House floor, misuse of state identification records, misappropriation of campaign funds, and acceptance of improper gifts or bribes. The decision to release the report indicates bipartisan support within the committee for making the findings public.
