investigated by prosecutors after he said he had embellished his
professional biography during his campaign to represent the state’s
3rd Congressional District.

Nassau County District Attorney Anne T. Donnelly, a Republican who
took office at the start of 2022, said in a statement on Dec. 29: “The
numerous fabrications and inconsistencies associated with
Congressman-Elect Santos are nothing short of stunning.

“The residents of Nassau County and other parts of the third district
must have an honest and accountable representative in Congress. No one
is above the law and if a crime was committed in this county, we will
prosecute it.”

Representatives for Santos did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

On Dec. 26, in an interview with the New York Post and New York-based
radio station WABC, Santos said he had fabricated parts of his
education and work experience, in what he called “resume
embellishments.”

Santos had falsely claimed on his biography posted on the National
Republican Congressional Committee that he had obtained “degrees in
finance and economics” at Baruch College and New York University, and
had worked for Citigroup and Goldman Sachs.

The revelations came about after a report from The New York Times on
Dec. 19 called into question what Santos had claimed about his
heritage, education, and work history.

The rep.-elect said he still plans to assume office in January. He is
scheduled to be sworn in on Jan. 3, when the U.S. House of
Representatives reconvenes.

“I want to make sure that if I disappointed anyone by resume
embellishments, I’m sorry,” he told WABC on Dec. 26. “And I will
deliver to you on everything I campaigned on because it’s still the
same guy, still the same message, still the same priorities.”

Santos faced other allegations such as that he had falsely said he was
Jewish. Santos on Dec. 26 told the New York Post he had “never claimed
to be Jewish.”

Previously, he referred to himself as “a proud American Jew,” reported
The Associated Press, and described himself as a “non-observant Jew,”
reported the Jewish Insider. He separately had said on Twitter that he
is a “conservative Roman Catholic.”

In remarks to the Jewish Insider in early November, Santos said:
“Whether my mother’s Jewish background beliefs, which are mine, or my
father’s Roman Catholic beliefs, which are also mine, are represented
or not, I want to represent everyone else that practices every other
religion to make sure everybody feels like they have a partner in me.”
