TL;DR Summary

The House of Representatives has voted to refer a resolution to expel Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) to the Ethics Committee, which has been investigating Santos since March. Democrats were looking to quickly oust Santos from their ranks after he was charged with 13 financial crimes, including defrauding his donors, using their money for his personal benefit and wrongfully claiming unemployment benefits. Republicans chose to refer the resolution to the Ethics Committee, a move criticized by Democrats. The matter is now in the hands of the Ethics Committee, which will investigate the claims against Santos.
