TL;DR Summary

Senator John Fetterman has renewed his call for the expulsion of Senator Bob Menendez following a second superseding indictment accusing Menendez of bribery and acting as a foreign agent for Qatar and Egypt. Fetterman, who has been vocal about the issue since the initial charges in September, argues that Menendez's alleged actions warrant his removal from the Senate. The Democratic Caucus has shown significant support for Menendez's resignation, and Fetterman has previously introduced measures to limit Menendez's role and access in the Senate. The Senate has the constitutional power to expel members with a two-thirds majority, a rare occurrence historically.
