New York Republicans have initiated a move to force a vote on the expulsion of George Santos from the House of Representatives. This move comes in the wake of allegations against Santos, which are currently under investigation. The resolution to expel Santos was filed by House Republicans, marking a significant escalation in the political tension surrounding the case. The resolution, if passed, would require a two-thirds majority vote in the House to expel Santos.

The allegations against Santos are serious, and the case is currently under review in court. The details of the allegations have not been disclosed to the public, and it is unclear how the court proceedings will impact Santos' position in the House. The move by the Republicans to force a vote on Santos' expulsion has been met with mixed reactions, with some viewing it as a necessary step towards accountability, while others see it as a politically motivated move.

The resolution to expel Santos is a rare move, and it is unclear how the House will respond. The House has the power to expel a member with a two-thirds majority vote, but this power is rarely used.
