RELEASE: REP. HILL STATEMENT ON EXPULSION OF REP. GEORGE SANTOS
WASHINGTON, D.C.,
December 1, 2023
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Rep. French Hill (AR-02) today released the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives voted to expel Rep. George Santos (R-NY):
“I have called on Rep. George Santos to resign since his fraudulent and discrediting conduct and inappropriate actions became public. Prior to today, the House had voted to expel only five Members of Congress, including only two since 1980 - both of whom were convicted of their crimes before expulsion. I believe that expelling a Member of Congress before conviction sets a dangerous precedent, which is why today I voted no to expel Rep. Santos.”
