demand action to remove George Santos from office.

Dear MoveOn member,

There is only one reason George Santos is still in Congress today after a
resolution to expel him was brought to the floor this week: Every single
House Republican voted to keep Santos from being expelled.^1

On Wednesday, Republicans in the House of Representatives voted
unanimously to protect Santos, the serial liar and fraudster who now faces
13-count federal indictment related to how he deceived the people of New
York's 3rd Congressional District.^2 Democrats sought to hold him
accountable and expel him—but Republicans voted to protect Santos and keep
control of their House majority.^3

However, the fact that Republicans instead voted to refer Santos's case to
the House Ethics Committee as a way to save face shows they are feeling
pressure—all the more reason to double down now, to demand action and
accountability. [ [link removed] ]Will you add your name along with more than 100,000
fellow MoveOn members in declaring it's time for Santos to go and for the
residents of NY-03 to get the representation they deserve?

George Santos’s recent indictment and nonstop lies prove that he’s unfit
for office. He must be removed or resign immediately.

Santos built his campaign on a web of outrageous and offensive lies,
deceiving the voters of New York's 3rd District about his qualifications,
work background, and who he really is. We’ve seen him be investigated and
now indicted on a number of federal charges, just days after admitting to
crimes in Brazil as part of a deal with prosecutors.^4,5

But Kevin McCarthy and his shameless MAGA Republicans seem content to keep
Santos around as long as possible to retain one more Republican seat in
their razor-thin majority. Their shameless vote against expulsion this
week shows that there really is no limit to what they'll accept if it
means they hold on to power.

Even if the GOP is doing everything in their power to hold onto Santos,
the fight isn’t over. We have to continue raising pressure and demanding
our voices be heard. 

We deserve leaders who will protect our communities, not protect MAGA
frauds in order to preserve power. And NY-03 deserves a real
representative who didn't lie their way into office. [ [link removed] ]Sign here to
demand accountability for Santos now!

Thanks for all you do.
