House to Vote on Historic Effort to Expel Rep. George Santos Amid Growing Calls over Fraud Charges

The House is expected to vote Wednesday on expelling Rep. George Santos, who faces federal criminal charges related to financial fraud.

A group of NY Republicans, including Rep. Anthony D’Esposito, introduced the resolution to oust Santos. It requires a 2/3 vote.

Speaker Johnson doesn't support removing Santos without due process. Some say it could set a dangerous precedent.

But NY Republicans in swing districts say there's evidence Santos is unfit to serve, citing new charges related to a fake $500K campaign loan.

If expelled, Santos would be the first rep removed without a conviction since the Civil War and only the 6th in history.
