Directing the Committee on Ethics to preserve and release records of the Committee's review of the alleged misconduct of Matthew Louis Gaetz II of Florida while serving as a Member of the House of Representatives.
This resolution directs the House Committee on Ethics to preserve and publicly release its investigation records regarding former Representative Matthew Gaetz of Florida. The Committee began investigating Gaetz in April 2021 over allegations including sexual misconduct, illicit drug use, sharing inappropriate images, misusing state identification records, converting campaign funds to personal use, and accepting bribes or improper gifts. Gaetz left office on November 13, 2024, and the resolution specifically calls for the Committee to release its report with findings and recommendations that were discussed on November 20, 2024. The resolution requires the Committee to protect witness confidentiality and redact information about minors and victims before releasing any documents. There is no specific funding or implementation timeline mentioned in the resolution, as it is a directive to an existing House committee to make documents public.
