Washington — A pair of New York Democratic lawmakers are filing a formal complaint with the House Ethics Committee against GOP Rep. George Santos on Tuesday, alleging he violated federal ethics law.
The two lawmakers, Reps. Ritchie Torres and Daniel Goldman, requested the House panel investigate whether Santos, also from New York, broke the Ethics in Government Act by failing to file "timely, accurate and complete financial disclosure reports."
Torres and Goldman alleged Santos's financial disclosure reports for 2020 and 2022 are "sparse and perplexing," and claim the Republican's public statements "have contradicted some information included in the 2022 financial disclosure and confirmed that the 2022 financial disclosure failed to disclose other information."
