LaLota: “A Huge Win for New Yorkers”

December 1, 2023

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, New York First Congressional District Representative Nick LaLota (R-Suffolk County) released the following statement after George Santos was expelled from the House of Representatives.

“With the expulsion of George Santos, Nassau and Queens County residents are one giant step closer to having real representation in the House of Representatives,” said LaLota. “Today, my colleagues and I set a strong precedent: A Member who lies about everything about themselves to get elected will be expelled so voters can have a chance at a proper election. With George Santos in Washington’s rear-view mirror, it’s time to focus on policy issues like the border and our nation’s debt.”
