House Reps To Vote Again On Expelling George Santos

November 16, 2023 Homocons, Republicans

The House is expected to vote on expulsion shortly after they return from their Thanksgiving recess — meaning the embattled Long Islander’s days in Congress are likely numbered. “He’s gone,” predicted one House Republican. Rep. Michael Guest (R-Miss.), the chair of the Ethics Committee, plans to file a privileged resolution to expel Santos at the House’s pro forma session on Friday, two lawmakers familiar with his plans told Axios.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), one of 31 Democrats who voted against a resolution to expel Santos earlier this month, told Axios he will now vote for expulsion. So will Reps. Kelly Armstrong (R-N.D.) and Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.). Rep. Greg Murphy (R-N.C.) said he “purposefully waited for the results” of the committee’s report before passing judgment, calling the findings “reprehensible and not worthy of being a member of Congress” and said he “will vote to expel him.”
