George Santos, Republican Representative for New York's 3rd district, on Thursday announced that he will not seek reelection in 2024 after the House Ethics Committee presented a damning report saying that they had “overwhelming evidence” of lawbreaking by the 35-year-old.
The ethics panel alleged that George Santos knowingly caused his campaign committee to file false or incomplete reports with the Federal Election Commission. The report added that the New York Republican used campaign funds for personal purposes.
“I will continue on my mission to serve my constituents up until I am allowed,” Santos reacted to the report on social media, adding that it was “a disgusting politicized smear.”
“I will however NOT be seeking re-election for a second term in 2024 as my family deserves better than to be under the gun from the press all the time,” the lawmaker further wrote.
Who Is George Santos' Husband Matt?
George Santos has been married to a man named Matt. In a tweet mourning the death of Senator Dianne Feinstein, he had written: "My husband Matt and I are heart broken by the news of the passing of Senator Feinstein. Sen. Feinstein was a trail blazer who dedicated over 30 years of service to her country. Our condolences to the Feinstein family as they grief this grave loss."
It was one of the first times that Santos mentioned his husband.
Santos soon tweeted saying he and Matt have been married since 2021. Several social media users accused of using the message to 'hard launch' his husband.
"For those wondering and going nuts, this is Matt my husband since Nov. 2021… I’m not sure where all the 'hard launch' comments came from. Or maybe it’s just that people are starting to understand they got played by the media with all the nonsense they wrote about me? Nonetheless, have a fantastic time pretending the media depiction of me is correct. Picture taken Nov. 2022 during new member orientation at Statuary Hall," Santos said.
