Santos is set to be sworn in Tuesday when the new Congress begins.
"This is troubling in so many ways. Certainly, he's lied repeatedly," said Brady, who is retiring from the House. "He certainly is going to have to consider resigning." Brady said a decision about whether Santos steps down is one "to be made between he and the voters who elected him."
He has shown no signs of stepping aside. Last week, Santos was asked on Fox News about the "blatant lies" and responded that he had "made a mistake." Brady said if he headed a committee that Santos was set to serve on, "right now, he would not be on the committee."
