Five vulnerable New York Republican House members are asking the conference to vote Wednesday to expel GOP Rep. George Santos from the chamber.

“As Republican Members from the New York delegation, we fully support Santos’ expulsion, and ask all of our colleagues to join us in voting yes,” the lawmakers wrote in a new letter to their colleagues dated Thursday.

Freshman Reps. Nick LaLota, Anthony D’Esposito, Marcus Molinaro, Brandon Williams and Mike Lawler signed the letter. The vulnerable members from New York’s congressional delegation address several specific concerns raised by their colleagues including the arguments to let Santos’ voters decide and that by removing him they are only decreasing their impossibly slim majority.

New York is like California. total prog control of government of local government, spending, patronage, and especially electoral systems, means it will just get manipulated steadily into being increasingly “blue”

Check their voting records. George Santos has a more conservative voting record than all of the above.

RINOs are worse than Democrats.

Santos has been unapologetically MAGA as he promised when he ran.

It's GOP members of Congress who are forcing the expulsion vote.

If they are vulnerable, perhaps they should be focusing on delivering for their constituents. Expelling Santos is not in the top 20 of constituent issues, what is wrong with these people?
