Dear MoveOn member,
Yesterday, Democrats introduced a resolution to expel habitual liar George Santos from the House.1 The motion failed after Republicans voted in lockstep to protect the representative, who is currently under federal indictment on 13 charges of wire fraud, money laundering, and theft of public funds.2
John, the far right is willing to do anything to keep a lying, stealing representative in Congress—all so Republicans can keep their razor-thin majority in the House.
We can't let them get away with it. Which is why MoveOn will be going all in to defeat Santos in 2024, along with the Republicans who protected him.
Will you chip in $3 today to power our effort to kick George Santos and his cronies out of Congress?
For months, MoveOn members have been at the forefront of the effort to expel Santos from Congress.
More than 113,000 MoveOn members signed the petition calling on Santos to resign.
And MoveOn has hosted in-person protests at Santos's office demanding that he be held accountable for his actions and leave office.
If House Republicans won't act to remove Santos from Congress, then we will.
John, defeating Santos is a key part of flipping the House.
Right now, there are 18 House Republicans—including Santos—who represent districts that President Biden won in 2020.
We call these 18 Republicans the "Complicit Caucus" because, while they ran as moderates in swing districts with strong Democratic bases, they are voting in lockstep with Marjorie Taylor Greene and the rest of the MAGA Republican House.
We need to defeat only five of them in 2024 to hand control of the House back to Democrats.
Thanks for all you do.
–Alexis, David, Justin, Allison, and the rest of the team

Want to support MoveOn's work? Voters just defied history and stopped a MAGA wave of extremism at the polls. But there is more work to do to end the filibuster, codify abortion rights into law, and defend our freedoms, our families, and our futures. We can accomplish all this and more, but only if we work together.
