CONGRESSMAN MIKE LAWLER RELEASES STATEMENT FOLLOWING EXPULSION OF GEORGE SANTOS

Today, Congressman Lawler released the following statement after George Santos was expelled from Congress.

"As I said from the very beginning, George Santos was unfit to serve. He defrauded voters, donors, and his colleagues. He had to go," said Congressman Lawler.

"Today’s vote was about putting country and the institution above all other considerations," concluded Congressman Lawler. "Good riddance."

New York's 17th Congressional District is just north of New York City and contains all or parts of Rockland, Putnam, Dutchess, and Westchester Counties.
