Indivisibles,

George Santos is a liar, a fraud, and a Trump loyalist currently facing 23
counts in federal court. Despite all of that, he refuses to relinquish his
seat as the representative for NY’s third congressional district. While
Democrats have been steadfast in their calls for Santos to resign, MAGA
Republicans have been protecting him, refusing to hold him accountable for
his deceptions in order to hold onto their thin majority.

But at this point, even some Republicans are fed up. 

Late last week, Rep. Anthony D’Esposito moved a motion to expel Santos on
the House floor with the support of a group of New York Republicans.
Santos is so crooked that his own party is finally turning on him. But
most importantly, because it is a privileged motion, it must be acted on
this week. There’s no time to lose.

immediately. 

The first shoe dropped in December of 2022 when The New York Times
published a bombshell exposé entitled “[ [link removed] ]Who Is Rep.-Elect George Santos?
His Résumé May Be Largely Fiction.” The piece reveals that Santos had
never worked for Citigroup or Goldman Sachs, never graduated from Baruch
College, did not run a tax-exempt charitable organization, had an open
case against him in Brazil, and was the sole owner of a company paying him
$750,000 per year with “no public-facing assets or other property that The
Times could locate.”

And the lies kept coming. ([ [link removed] ]Most recently capped by making claims that
his niece was kidnapped.)

But ultimately, it was his grifting of donors and supporters that led to
his [ [link removed] ]federal indictments. These charges include wire fraud, aggravated
identity theft, filing a false report with the Federal Elections
Commission, and conspiracy to commit offenses against the US, among
others.

In lay terms, his charges stem from allegedly filing fraudulent campaign
reports inflating his campaign’s worth, charging donor credit cards
repeatedly without their consent, and using a fake non-profit to funnel
donor money to himself. 

The original 13 charges were filed back in May, but a 23-charge
superseding indictment was filed on October 10, following his campaign
treasurer, Nancy Marks, pleading guilty to [ [link removed] ]conspiracy to defraud the US
government. 

That’s right, no one believes Santos’ stories -- not federal prosecutors,
not his fellow Republicans, and not even his own campaign treasurer who
helped in his schemes. But while the justice system continues to do its
work, people like newly-elected Speaker Mike Johnson refuse to expel
Santos because, as he put it in an [ [link removed] ]interview with Sean Hannity, “we
have a four-seat majority in the House, it is possible that that number
may be reduced even more in the coming weeks and months, and so we’ll have
what may be the most razor-thin majority in the history of the Congress.
We have no margin for error.”

Well then let’s make sure the rest of the House takes care of what Johnson
is too cowardly to do. 

[ [link removed] ]The vote to expel Santos could come as soon as today, so call your
representative and demand they expel George Santos from the House of
Representatives immediately.

[ [link removed] ]Call now >>

At some point, congress has to agree that there is a baseline of moral
conduct necessary to represent the American people. George Santos is 20 ft
below any baseline we could possibly conceive. The people of New York
deserve better. Our country deserves better. [ [link removed] ]Call your representative
today!

In solidarity,
