Embattled New York Rep. George Santos said Thursday that he is «fully cooperating» with the House Ethics Committee, which is probing numerous allegations against the freshman Republican.
The committee voted unanimously earlier on Thursday to establish an “Investigative Subcommittee” to look into the claims made against Santos, which is the panel’s first move toward formally investigating him.
Among the accusations the subcommittee will look at are whether Santos «engaged in unlawful activity with respect to his 2022 congressional campaign; failed to properly disclose required information on statements filed with the House; violated federal conflict of interest laws in connection with his role in a firm providing fiduciary services; and/or engaged in sexual misconduct towards an individual seeking employment in his congressional office,» according to a news release from the House Ethics Committee.
