Rep. Sean Casten introduced a privileged resolution that would require the House Ethics Committee to make its investigative report into the former Florida congressman public.

Summary

Rep. Sean Casten (D-Ill.) is forcing a House vote this week to release the Ethics Committee’s report on former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), who resigned from Congress after being named and later withdrawing as Trump’s pick for attorney general.

The Ethics Committee deadlocked on making the report public, which investigates allegations of sexual misconduct and drug use.

Casten argues that resigning should not shield members from accountability, citing past cases where reports on former lawmakers were released.

Gaetz denies wrongdoing and may pursue future political roles.
