If the House of Representatives votes to expel Rep. George Santos from Congress, the Republican from New York would join the rare club of members booted from the lower chamber. Expulsions from the House are so rare that they have happened just five times in the history of the United States, and just twice in the last 50 years. Of the five expulsions, three were Members who sided against the Union in the Civil War.
Short of expulsion, Congress has other serious disciplinary measures, including censure and reprimand: legislative procedures where the full House, by majority vote on a simple resolution, formally expresses its disapproval of a member’s conduct. Generally, censures carry the additional requirement that the member in question stand in front of the chamber to receive a verbal rebuke and hear the resolution read by the speaker of the House.
