The House Ethics Committee is still investigating allegations against the Florida Republican, including that he may have engaged in sexual misconduct and illegal drug use, and accepted improper gifts.
By Jacqueline Alemany, The Washington PostRep. Matt Gaetz derided the extension of a House Ethics Committee investigation into him.
It has opened up new lines of inquiry into the Florida lawmaker, according to a statement released by the bipartisan panel on Tuesday. The committee detailed the new avenues of investigation, including whether Gaetz “dispensed special privileges and favors to individuals with whom he had a personal relationship, and sought to obstruct government investigations of his conduct.
Gaetz has “categorically denied” the allegations before the panel, the committee wrote in the statement, before noting the “difficulty in obtaining relevant information” from the lawmaker. Still, investigators have “spoken with more than a dozen witnesses, issued 25 subpoenas, and reviewed thousands of pages of documents in this matter,” the committee added.
