Mr. Speaker, of all the lies that George Santos told, two are the most jarring: that his mother perished in 9/11--was in the building, got cancer from 9/11, or that his parents or grandparents fled the Holocaust. In both instances, Mr. Santos used tragic events in history to try and propel himself to public office. Worse than that, he not only defrauded the voters of the Third District, he also defrauded donors, stealing their money for personal gain. The facts and the evidence are clear. He can defend himself in a court of law, but for the purposes of this body, he has to go. It is time to expel George Santos.
