Two Democratic House members from New York filed an ethics complaint Tuesday against Rep. George Santos, the lying Long Island Republican who has admitted to fabricating much of his career, educational background and family history.
Reps. Ritchie Torres of the Bronx and Daniel Goodman, who represents parts of Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan, called on the House Ethics Committee to launch an investigation into Santos, who was elected Nov. 8 to rep the Empire State’s 3rd Congressional District.
“Over the past several weeks, extensive public reporting — as well as Santos’s own admissions — have shown that Mr. Santos misled voters in his District about his ethnicity, his religion, his education, and his employment and professional history, among other things,” the lawmakers wrote in a letter posted on Torres’ Twitter account.
