Multiple falsifications have left Santos deeply unpopular in his own party.
Over the past several weeks, multiple confirmed instances of falsification on the life and accomplishments of New York Republican Representative George Santos have come to light. Santos fabricated stories on his career history and professional accomplishments, his academic history and degrees, and even his personal and family history. These reveals have all been corroborated by the schools and companies that Santos claimed to have attended or worked for.

As the falsifications mount, multiple House Republicans, mostly from New York, have called for Santos to resign from his position in Congress.
“When public servants deceive and mislead those they are tasked with serving, they are no longer fit to work for the people,” said Rep. Anthony D’Esposito. “It has become clear that Congressman George Santos’ many hurtful lies and mistruths surrounding his history have irreparably broken the trust of the residents he is sworn in to serve.”
“For his betrayal of the public’s trust, I call on Congressman George Santos to resign,” he added.

“I support the Nassau Republicans’ decision today to request the resignation of George Santos,” said Rep. Nick Langworthy. “It’s clear that he cannot be an effective representative and it would be in the best interest of the taxpayers to have new leadership.”
“I will continue working with our local elected officials to ensure that trust and dignity are restored to the 3rd congressional district,” he added.
Santos has repeatedly refused urgings to step down from the position.
