McCarthy Won’t Call on George Santos to Resign

“House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Wednesday said he would not urge embattled Republican Rep. George Santos to resign from Congress, hours after local GOP officials tore into the New York legislator and pushed him to step down,” CNBC reports.

Said McCarthy: “Look, the voters decide. That’s what his decision is to make. The voters elected him to serve. If there is a concern, he has to go through the Ethics Committee, let him move through that.”
