Re: Sign the petition: Expel George Santos

Friend, George Santos is a pathological liar who does not belong in the United States Congress. [Sign the petition: Expel George Santos.]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( George Santos told many, many [lies]( about major aspects of his life. As a result, he finds himself amid local, state, and federal investigations into his personal, academic, and financial histories. Meanwhile, now that he’s won an election based on his very big whoppers, it’s time to… help lead the country? No way! Republicans and Democrats in the House must vote to expel George Santos, condemn his disgraceful fraudulence as someone unfit to hold office and uphold the integrity of what it means to serve in our nation's Congress. [Sign the petition: Congress must vote to expel George Santos.]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Thanks for all you do, Erin Tulley, Daily Kos P.S. Below is an email we sent out earlier demanding the U.S. House expel George Santos: --------------------------------------------------------------- Friend, George Santos lied his way into a U.S. Congressional seat. [Sign the petition: Expel George Santos.]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Santos lied about his [work history and achievements](, lied about his mother's death, lied about being related to Holocaust survivors, and lied about employing PULSE nightclub victims. Santos is also facing possible legal charges in Brazil for fraud, after stealing the checkbook of a man who his mother was working for as a nurse. Santos’ disgraceful lies are more than a national embarrassment - they have the potential to be a real national security risk. As a sitting member of Congress, Santos could have access to classified information. To allow an individual facing criminal charges from a foreign government to have access to classified documents would further erode the trust Americans have with their elected officials. [Sign the petition: Expel George Santos.]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( In the coming days, George Santos will almost certainly be sworn into Congress - but that doesn’t have to be the end of it. Article I, Section 5 of the U.S. Constitution makes it [clear that]( the U.S. House—with a two-thirds vote—may expel a member. Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) has already [called on the House]( to vote to expel George Santos if he does not resign. Other members of Congress [have made similar requests](.
