In 2017, Santos reportedly held a $50 per person fundraiser for a New Jersey animal-rescue group whose leader later told the Times it never received any of the proceeds.Santos’ latest campaign made him the first openly gay, non-incumbent Republican elected to Congress. “I’m very much gay,” he added. “I’m OK with my sexuality. People change. I’m one of those people who change.”Santos has vehemently pushed back against reporting by the Times about a criminal case filed against him in Brazil over a 2008 incident in which he allegedly stole the checkbook of a man for whom his mother was working as a nurse.

But the NYPD told the news outlet there was “nothing on file” regarding the alleged incident, which reportedly came during an eviction proceeding that was resolved when Santos moved out.
