New York Republicans move to force a vote on Santos expulsion
BY MYCHAEL SCHNELL - 10/26/23 6:40 PM ET

A group of New York Republicans moved to force a vote on expelling Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) Thursday, the second effort this year to eject the first-term lawmaker from Congress amid mounting federal charges.

Rep. Anthony D’Esposito (R-N.Y.) called the measure to the floor as a privileged resolution Thursday afternoon, which forces leadership to act on the legislation within two legislative days. The House left Washington Thursday afternoon and is not scheduled to return until Wednesday.

Leadership can motion to table the resolution or refer it to a committee, both of which would require majority support. But if the legislation comes to the floor for a vote, it will need backing from two-thirds of the chamber.

The path forward on the expulsion resolution will be one of the first big decisions made by Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who won the gavel Wednesday following former Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif.) ouster from the top position. Johnson will have to make a decision on the Santos expulsion in his first week on the job.

2. Can he get a majority?

There are 3 ny Republicans who w a nt him gone. He is an anchor on their campaigns.

I'm sure he has pissed off a few more somewhere.

Not sure they will get 2/3, but they can prevent it getting buried.
