LI Congressman-elect George Santos talks about fabricating resume in interview with NY Post

LONG ISLAND (WABC) — Long Island Congressman-elect George Santos is talking for the first time about fabricating his resume.

Santos, in an interview with the New York Post, claims the controversy will, in his words, ‘not deter me from having good legislative success.’

Santos admitted he never worked directly for Goldman Sachs and Citigroup, as he claimed, and that he never graduated from Baruch or NYU as he claimed.

If Santos steps down, there will be a special election.
