Republican U.S. Senator John Cornyn told reporters on Thursday that he "absolutely" wants to review an unreleased congressional ethics report on Matt Gaetz, President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for attorney general.

The committee has been investigating allegations that Mr. Gaetz, President-elect Donald J. Trump’s pick for attorney general, engaged in sexual misconduct and illicit drug use.

Pressure is increasing on the House Ethics Committee to release the findings of their investigation into attorney general nominee Matt Gaetz.

Matt Gaetz's immediate resignation from Congress on Wednesday came just days before a House Ethics Committee was set to vote on releasing its report on Gaetz, according to multiple reports. President-elect Donald Trump named Gaetz as his pick for U.

Republicans and Democrats alike insisted that the findings of the House Ethics Committee, which has been investigating the Florida Republican for years over sexual misconduct and other charges, be made public.

His resignation came the same day Donald Trump nominated him to be attorney general, but some Republicans think he had other motivations.

Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) and John Cornyn (R-Texas) called Thursday for the House Ethics Committee to release the results of its investigation into former Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz’s conduct ahead of Senate considerations of President-elect Donald Trump’s planned nomination of Gaetz as attorney general.
