0:23Now PlayingA defiant New York Rep. George Santos Thursday dismissed calls for his resignation amid calls by fellow Republicans for the freshman lawmaker to step down.
RELATEDRep. Santos questioned, but no clear answers to background inquiries
As pressure mounts for embattled freshman Rep. George Santos to resign, Speaker Kevin McCarthy said it's up to the New Yorkers who put him in office to decide. "The voters elected him to serve," McCarthy told reporters at the Capitol Wednesday afternoon in an exchange shown on CNN. "He has to answer to the voters."
He also said Santos, who voted last week to install McCarthy as speaker, would be placed on committees but did not elaborate. His comments come hours after Nassau County Republicans called on Santos to resign for telling a litany of lies that are "too numerous to count."
Santos has been facing scrutiny after multiple reports revealed he lied about his personal story and professional resume in his bid for a congressional seat.
