"House Contemplates Expulsion of George Santos in Historic Vote"

The House of Representatives is considering whether to expel Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.), who is facing federal charges including fraud and money laundering. Unlike previous cases of expulsion, Santos has not been convicted of a crime. The House Ethics Committee is still investigating the charges against Santos and will announce its next course of action by November 17, 2023. Some lawmakers argue that expelling Santos without due process would set a dangerous precedent, while others believe there is enough evidence to warrant his removal. The expulsion would require a two-thirds majority vote in the House.
