Here Are The 20 Republicans Who Refused To Censure and Fine Democrat Adam Schiff

Republican Representative Anna Paulina Luna earlier in the month brought forth a motion to censure and fine Democrat Rep Adam Schiff for  “egregious abuse of the trust of the American people” for his efforts to investigate President Trump.

The House however voted down the resolution in a 225-196-7 vote.

In the vote, 20 republicans sided with Democrats to stop Schiff from being censured.

Here are the 20 Republicans:

• Reps. Kelly Armstrong (N.D.),
• Lori Chavez-DeRemer (Ore.),
• Juan Ciscomani (Ariz.),
• Tom Cole (Okla.),
• Warren Davidson (Ohio),
• Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.),
• Kay Granger (Texas),
• Garret Graves (La.),
• Thomas Kean Jr. (N.J.),
• Kevin Kiley (Calif.),
• Young Kim (Calif.),
• Mike Lawler (N.Y.),
• Thomas Massie (Ky.),
• Tom McClintock (Calif.),
• Mark Molinaro (N.Y.),
• Jay Obernolte (Calif.),
• Mike Simpson (Idaho),
• Mike Turner (Ohio),
• David Valadao (Calif.)
• Steve Womack (Ark.)

Here’s what The Hill reported:

Twenty House Republicans joined Democrats on Wednesday in voting to table a resolution to censure Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), breaking from the majority of the GOP conference on a measure that was backed by leadership.

The House voted 225-196-7 to effectively kill the measure, which was spearheaded by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.). It called for censuring and condemning Schiff “for conduct that misleads the American people in a way that is not befitting an elected Member of the House of Representatives.”

It also would have directed the Ethics Committee to conduct an investigation into Schiff’s “lies, misrepresentations, and abuses of sensitive information.”

Twenty Republicans voted with Democrats in favor of the motion to table: Reps. Kelly Armstrong (N.D.), Lori Chavez-DeRemer (Ore.), Juan Ciscomani (Ariz.), Tom Cole (Okla.), Warren Davidson (Ohio), Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.), Kay Granger (Texas), Garret Graves (La.), Thomas Kean Jr. (N.J.), Kevin Kiley (Calif.), Young Kim (Calif.), Mike Lawler (N.Y.), Thomas Massie (Ky.), Tom McClintock (Calif.), Mark Molinaro (N.Y.), Jay Obernolte (Calif.), Mike Simpson (Idaho), Mike Turner (Ohio), David Valadao (Calif.) and Steve Womack (Ark.).

Here’s what USA Today reported:

A Republican effort to censure Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., failed on Wednesday after 20 Republicans broke with their own party to join Democrats in a motion to table the resolution.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., a member of the right-wing House Freedom Caucus, sought to censure Schiff for alleging collusion between Donald Trump and Russia during the 2016 presidential election. But the House voted 225-196 to table the resolution and defeat the effort to censure Schiff.

The failed resolution also intended to fine Schiff $16 million, approximately half the amount it cost the U.S. government for special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Trump’s alleged ties to Russia.

Schiff wrote in a tweet the “partisan and failed attempt to censure me is a badge of honor that I will wear proudly.”

BREAKING: 20 Republicans cross the aisle and vote with the democrats to end the resolution to censure Adam Schiff. The censure also called for an investigation and possible fine for lying and wasting American taxpayer resources.
