A former aide filed a complaint with the House Ethics Committee on Friday against Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y., according to a copy of the complaint posted on social media. Santos has denied the allegations. Here's what else we know:
What did Derek Myers do for George Santos?
Myers worked in Santos' D.C. office starting Jan. 24, according to the ethics complaint. His duties included"answering phones, reading mail, corresponding, and writing to constituents, among other tasks." He said his title was"volunteer" until hiring paperwork could be completed. Myers wrote that on Jan. 25, the day after he started working as a volunteer, Santos hit on him.
Santos put his leg on Myers' left leg and said,"Hey buddy, we're going to karaoke tonight. Would you like to go?" When Myers declined, Santos"proceeded to take his hand and move it down my leg into my inner-thigh and proceeded to touch my groin." Myers pushed Santos' hand away and proceeded to discuss constituent correspondence. What else does the complaint against George Santos allege?
Myers said he was called into the Congressman's office on Jan. 30 and asked about his background as a journalist, including"matters that had already been disclosed in my conversations with hiring managers." The complaint also alleges that it is a violation of House Ethics for Santos' office to have him work as a volunteer to"offload work from paid staff members." Santos denied the sexual harassment allegation.
