The House Ethics panel will meet Wednesday and potentially vote to release a report probing sexual misconduct allegations against former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), who Donald Trump tapped to be his attorney general, according to two people familiar with the discussion.

The meeting comes as Gaetz’s confirmation is in question, with some Republican senators wary of the controversial Florida Republican serving as the nation’s top law enforcement officer.

Speaker Mike Johnson is putting pressure on members of the Ethics Committee to keep the report under wraps, saying on Friday that he is “going to strongly request” the report isn’t released because “that is not the way we do things in the House, and I think that would be a terrible precedent to set.”

Johnson furthered that stance in interviews on the Sunday shows and threw his support behind Gaetz to be attorney general.

Members rescheduled the Wednesday meeting from one last week where lawmakers were widely expected to vote on whether to release the report.

Whether or not to release the report, which some senators have said would be essential in deciding whether or not to confirm Gaetz, is placing intense pressure on the historically bipartisan Ethics Committee. Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin on Sunday told “Meet The Press” that the Senate should “absolutely” be able to see the report, but he said that doesn’t necessarily mean it should become public.

Gaetz, a fierce and loyal supporter of Trump’s, has a tough road to confirmation in the Senate. GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) said she doesn’t “think it’s a serious nomination.” And fellow swing-vote Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine said she was “shocked” by the choice.

Republicans will hold 53 Senate seats in the next Congress, meaning they can only afford three defectors in the confirmation process.

Joel Leppard, who represents two people who testified to the House Ethics committee, told ABC News on Friday his client saw Gaetz having sex with a minor at a party and told the committee about the incident in their testimony. And he’s making the rounds on cable Monday to call for the report’s release.

“Ultimately, I hope it puts a lot of pressure on the panel to release the report,” Leppard told Playbook Sunday. “My clients have already been through this several times and they really, really do not want to testify again, especially not on the floor of the Senate.”

Gaetz has denied any wrongdoing.
