Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) and Rep. George Santos (R-NY) appeared to have a "tense" conversation as senators entered the chamber for the State of the Union.
Santos, a freshman congressman, admitted to fabricating key aspects of his resume and personal history and is facing calls from constituents and colleagues to resign. Romney ran for president in 2012.

Santos has refused to resign, angering some members of his party. If he left Congress, it would leave the GOP with an even slimmer majority in the House.
