Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, from left, former Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y., and Rep. Jonathan Jackson, D-Ill., speak before President Joe Biden delivers the State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress at the Capitol, March 7, 2024, in Washington., has announced that he's once again running for the House -- but, Republican leadership in the Long Island district he's eyeing told ABC News on Friday that there is "no appetite" for Santos..
This time, Santos will challenge Republican Rep. Nick LaLota in New York's 1st District, which neighbors the congressional district he previously represented, New York's 3rd District. "His candidacy and whatever petitions he might file will have the same level of credibility as the degree he said he claimed to have received from Baruch College," Garcia said."Nick LaLota is a common sense conservative and naval veteran who continues to fight for the hard-working families of Long Island," Garcia said. "I'm confident the people of the First District will continue to overwhelmingly support him at the ballot box.
