After George Santos was expelled from the House on Friday, several Republican members of Congress said that Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman of New York should face a vote of censure or expulsion by the House following his pleading guilty to a misdemeanor, they told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Bowman pled guilty to a misdemeanor for improperly triggering a fire alarm on Sept. 30 in the Cannon House Office Building, where members of Congress have their offices, prompting an evacuation of the building. After Santos, who has been indicted on 23 felony charges for campaign finance-related offenses, was expelled in a bipartisan vote on Friday, several House Republicans indicated that Bowman should be sanctioned next.
“He’s been convicted of a crime. George Santos wasn’t. He’s pled guilty to a crime. George Santos has not been convicted of anything,” said Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado to the DCNF, affirming her belief that Bowman should be expelled. “This is a terrible precedent, a shameful precedent was just set,” she added about the expulsion of Santos.
