MODERATORS
 

Matt Gaetz may be done with the House of Representatives, but his former colleagues aren’t through with him yet.

Lawmakers on Thursday are expected to decide the fate of the long-awaited House ethics report into sexual misconduct allegations against Gaetz, with many pressing for its release even though the Florida Republican has left Congress and withdrawn as President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for attorney general. Gaetz denies the allegations.

The bipartisan committee planned to vote in the afternoon on whether to make public the findings of their yearslong inquiry. If they decide against that disclosure, Democrats are poised to force votes on the House floor requiring the committee to publish the full report.

I mean they got Gaetz to resign so they weren't wasted.

Didn't he won the re election? He's going to be there again on the next congress. He basically just took a vacation.
