    NY Rep.-elect Santos admits lying about career, college – By Associated Press (SFGATE) / Dec 26,2022

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Rep.-elect George Santos, R-N.Y., admitted Monday that he lied about his job experience and college education during his successful campaign for a seat in the U.S. House.

    In an interview with the New York Post, Santos said: “My sins here are embellishing my resume. I’m sorry.”

    He also told the newspaper: “I campaigned talking about the people’s concerns, not my resume” and added, “I intend to deliver on the promises I made during the campaign.”

    The New York Times raised questions last week about the life story that Santos, 34, had presented during his campaign.
