WASHINGTON, DC - JANUARY 04: U.S. Rep.-elect George Santos (R-NY) (L) stands with to Rep.-elect Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) in the House Chamber during the second day of elections for Speaker of the House at the U.S. Capitol Building on January 04, 2023 in Washington, DC. The House of Representatives is meeting to vote for the next Speaker after House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) failed to earn more than 218 votes on three separate Tuesday ballots, the first time in 100 years that the Speaker was not elected on the first ballot.

In a new letter to their colleagues ahead of the vote on Wednesday, five New York Republicans from swing districts wrote, “as Republican Members from the New York delegation, we fully support Santos’ expulsion, and ask all of our colleagues to join us in voting yes.”
