Nancy Marks submitted false reports stating that 10 family members had contributed to Santos’ campaign when they had not.

Santos himself has been charged with campaign finance fraud, money laundering, and other crimes. Along with Nancy Marks, former fundraiser, Samuel Miele, was also charged with impersonating a top aide to former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy while seeking campaign donations.

Santos has faced criticism and calls for his resignation due to previous allegations of lying about his business history and education, as well as other scandals.
