Casten Statement on Release of Gaetz Report
Washington, D.C. — U.S. Congressman Sean Casten (IL-06) has issued the following statement regarding the release of the Gaetz Report:
“The release of the Gaetz Report is welcome news for all who care about integrity, accountability, and transparency in the U.S. House of Representatives,” said U.S. Congressman Sean Casten.
Earlier this month, Rep. Casten introduced a privileged resolution to force a vote by the full House of Representatives requiring the House Ethics Committee to release the Gaetz Report. House Republican leadership then passed a motion to kill the resolution.
Last month, Rep. Casten led 97 House Democrats in a letter to the House Ethics Committee requesting the immediate release of its report into allegations of serious misconduct by former Congressman Matt Gaetz.
