TL;DR Summary

Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia introduced a resolution on the House floor to expel GOP Rep. George Santos, who was indicted on 13 criminal counts, including wire fraud, money laundering, and theft of public funds. The resolution would need a two-thirds majority to pass, but House Republicans are likely to table it. At least 12 House Republicans have called for Santos to resign or be expelled from Congress. Garcia's resolution is about putting Republicans on the record, and he hopes to speed up the timeline on a vote. Santos has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
