Attorney Joel Leppard says Matt Gaetz paid for two women to travel to New York for sex.

The women testified to the House Ethics Committee that Gaetz flew them across state lines to have sex on at least two occasions.

The Justice Department declined to charge Gaetz last year after a yearslong investigation into the allegations.

Lawyer for two women says they were paid to entertain and have sex with Gaetz and others at parties.

Lawyer says they have spent years in counseling -- paid for by the FBI -- following the investigation into Gaetz .

The women say their sexual interactions with the congressman were fully consensual and that they voluntarily participated in the parties.
