Rep. Anthony D’Esposito (R-N.Y.) on Monday suggested there are enough votes to expel Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) from the House amid the controversy that surrounds Santos in his mounting legal battles.

Asked on NewsNation’s “The Hill” if a measure to expel Santos would pass, D’Esposito said, “I think there is an opportunity for it to pass, because I think we have an opportunity to set a new precedent.”
