The House Ethics Committee confirmed it is investigating allegations that Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) engaged in sexual misconduct and illicit drug use as part of its yearslong inquiry.
The committee announced in a rare statement on Tuesday it would close four probes into Gaetz related to allegations he “shared inappropriate images or videos on the House floor, misused state identification records, converted campaign funds to personal use, and/or accepted a bribe or improper gratuity.”
