Jackson's Statement on George Santos Expulsion Vote | 2023-12-01 | 2023 | 2023-12 | Democrat | House | IL | Jonathan L. Jackson | J000309 | jonathanjackson.house.gov | jonathanjackson | https://jonathanjackson.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, U.S. Representative Jonathan L. Jackson (IL-01) released the following statement on his decision to vote present on the motion to expel U.S. Rep. George Santos (NY-03) from the U.S. House of Representatives: "Today, I voted present on the motion to expel now-former Congressman Santos. Despite his reprehensible behavior, I am deeply concerned by the precedent such an expulsion sets. At a time when Congress has shredded norms and reached new levels of dysfunction, we must protect this institution and the constitutional right to due process. Former Congressman Santos deserves his day in court and to be judged by a jury of his peers. That day is coming, and until then, he deserves the presumption of innocence." | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T01:14:16Z |
