Nassau County Legislator Joshua Lafazan held a press conference Thursday, Feb. 2, in front of the Douglaston office of Congressman George Santos to announce that he will be sending a letter to United States Attorney General Merrick Garland, calling for an immediate federal monitor to oversee Santos’ campaign funds.

This request comes after confirmation that there is a new FBI investigation into Santos related to him allegedly pocketing the $3,000 from a GoFundMe he made to pay for the lifesaving surgery of a homeless veteran’s service dog.
