Rep. George Santos of New York will be arraigned on new criminal wire fraud and identity theft charges.
Santos hinted he would plead not guilty to the latest charges and he repeated his vow not to resign from Congress. A lawyer for Santos declined CNBC's request for comment ahead of the hearing, which is set to begin at 10:30 a.m. ET at U.S. District Court in Long Island. In May, federal prosecutors filed a 13-count indictment accusing Santos of defrauding supporters of his congressional campaign by soliciting contributions that he then used for his personal expenses, including designer clothes and credit card payments.
