House Ethics Committee Stalemate Over Gaetz Report Release

TL;DR Summary
The U.S. House Committee on Ethics is deadlocked on whether to release a report on former Rep. Matt Gaetz, who is nominated to be attorney general under President-elect Donald Trump. The report investigates allegations of Gaetz's involvement in sex parties and illegal activities, which the FBI previously investigated without pressing charges. The committee, evenly split between Democrats and Republicans, will revisit the decision in December. Gaetz, who resigned from Congress, is meeting with Senate Republicans for his confirmation, while some senators demand the report's release. House Democrats are pushing for its public disclosure.
