TL;DR Summary

Congressman Matt Gaetz has joined the growing chorus of calls for Christian Ziegler, the chair of the Florida Republican Party, to resign following accusations of rape and sexual assault. Ziegler has faced pressure from within his own party, including from Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and senators Marco Rubio and Rick Scott. Gaetz, who previously refrained from commenting on the matter, stated that it was time for new leadership in the Republican Party and that Ziegler should step aside. The allegations against Ziegler involve a long-term consensual relationship with a woman, whom he is accused of raping when she refused to have sex without his wife present.
