There’s a new resolution to expel George Santos after report from Ethics Committee

by The Right Scoop

Rep. Michael Guest from Mississippi, who is also the chair of the House Ethics Committee, has filed a resolution to expel George Santos after the Ethics Committee report came out yesterday.

Guest has issued a statement on his move to do this:

He’s essentially saying that because the Ethics Committee decided to forgo a lengthier process to recommend punishment for Santos, he’s doing it himself separate from the committee.

It’s apparently a privileged motion but won’t be handled until after Thanksgiving, according to Jake Sherman: “He’s introducing it and placing in the hopper. He’s not noticing it as privileged. So the block — two legislative days to bring it up — doesn’t start until someone notices it as privileged. Someone will do that when Congress returns after thanksgiving.”
