Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) on Monday announced he is running for reelection, despite being dogged by multiple investigations, questions about his resume and finances and calls from members of his own party to resign.

“Since the Left is pushing radical agendas, the economy is struggling, and Washington is incapable of solving anything, we need a fighter who knows the district and can serve the people fearlessly, and independent of local or national party influence,” Santos said in a statement.

“Good isn’t good enough, and I’m not shy about doing what it takes to get the job done. I’m proud to announce my candidacy to run for re-election and continue to serve the people of NY-3,” he added.
