The House Ethics Committee issued an update regarding its investigation into Rep. George Santos (R-NY) just days before lawmakers are set to vote on whether to expel the New York freshman, indicating details of his alleged violations won’t be available until later next month.
In a statement released on Tuesday afternoon, the committee said it contacted roughly 40 witnesses and authorized 37 subpoenas since lawmakers voted on Feb. 23 to establish an investigative subcommittee into alleged ethics violations by Santos. Since then, the panel has reviewed more than 170,000 pages of documents in an investigation they say has been “a priority” and has “involved a significant amount of the Committee’s resources.”
