Speaker Kevin McCarthy explained how Rep. George Santos could exit Congress through the House Ethics Committee, though he has continued to stick by the embattled freshman Republican from New York.
“If for some way when we go through Ethics and he has broken the law, then we will remove him, but it's not my role,” McCarthy said."I believe in the rule of law. A person's innocent until proven guilty."
McCarthy could not by himself expel Santos from the chamber even if he wanted to – that would take a vote by two-thirds of the House – but he could marshal his caucus for such a vote in the future.
