Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) attempted to intimidate President Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen ahead of his testimony to Congress earlier this year.
In a statement, House Ethics Committee Chairman Ted Deutch (D-Fla.) and Rep. Kenny Marchant (R-Texas), the panel's ranking Republican, said that Gaetz declined the committee's request to appear before the committee for an in-person interview in May.
