Three days after the New York Times published a bombshell investigation suggesting that he fabricated key parts of his résumé during the campaign, Rep.-elect GeorgeSantos broke his silence.
In a message to the people of the state's Third Congressional District,Santos said that he had his story to tell and it would be told next week.
He assured everyone that he would address their questions and that he remained committed to delivering the results he had promised. Wishing everyone a happy holidays!
The Times report found that he may have misled voters about his college graduation, his criminal and employment history, his family-owned business, his animal rescue charity, and his relationship with the victims of the 2016 Pulse nightclub shooting in Florida.
The kind of progress that the Left is so threatened by is presented by the gay, Latino, first- generation American and Republican who won a Biden district in overwhelming fashion by showing everyday voters that there is a better option.
After four years in the public eye, and on the verge of being sworn in as a member of the Republican led 118th Congress, the New York Times launches this shotgun blast of attacks. The congressman-elect has enemies at the New York Times who are trying to ruin his reputation by making false accusations.
The statement didn't address the allegations that appeared in the Times.
The democrat who lost to the republican in last month's election called for his resignation.
The truth is thatSantos lied to the voters of NY-03. He doesn't deserve to represent Long Island and Queens because he has violated the public trust.
Santos should resign because he failed to answer any of the questions about the allegations. It shows why there needs to be an investigation of the House Ethics Committee.
According to the office of the state attorney general, she plans to investigate some of the issues raised about the man.
The Forward, a New York City based Jewish publication, reported that he may have misled voters about his Jewish ancestry.
According to the biography posted to his website, the mother ofSantos was born in Brazil to immigrants who fled Jewish persecution in Ukraine and settled in Belgium during World War II.
According to genealogy records cited by the Forward, Devolder's parents may have been born in Brazil prior to World War II.
The Daily Beast reported Thursday that Santos, who was celebrated by the GOP as the first openly gay non-incumbent Republican elected to Congress, appeared to be the subject of a previously unacknowledged divorce.
Less than two weeks after his divorce was finalized, he filed the paperwork to run for Congress.
