“A House Democrat introduced a resolution Tuesday afternoon to expel Rep. George Santos (R-NY),” CNN reports.
“The motion offered by freshman Democratic congressman Robert Garcia is privileged, so House GOP can have until Thursday to schedule the vote. It is not yet clear exactly when the vote will take place.”
“The move is expected to fail, but will put House Republicans on the record over the indicted congressman, who faces calls to resign from within his own party.”
