Republican Representative Nick Langworthy from western New York and Representative Anthony D’Esposito, who represents a district next to that of Mr Santos, were also among those calling on the first-term congressman to step down. “I was elected to serve the people of #NY03 not the party and politicians, I remain committed to doing that and regret to hear that local officials refuse to work with my office,” he wrote, referring to the congressional district he represents.
Among other claims, Mr Santos said he had degrees from New York University and Baruch College, despite neither institution having any record of him attending. He claimed to have worked at Goldman Sachs and Citigroup, which was also untrue.
