Speaker Mike Johnson opposes calls for release of ethics report on Gaetz

Nov. 15 (UPI) -- House Speaker Mike Johnson said Friday he opposes calls from a bipartisan group of lawmakers to release a House Ethics Committee report on Matt Gaetz, President-elect Donald Trump's choice for attorney general.

Johnson said he is "going to strongly request that the Ethics Committee not issue the report because that is not the way we do things in the House" in comments to CNN and Politico.
