Around the holiday season, Santos began selling personalized video messages on Cameo for $250 each.
Later, after canceling the State of the Union address in March, Santos announced plans to run in New York’s 1st Congressional District for the seat held by incumbent Congressman Nick Larota (R-N.Y.).
