Schiff, D-Calif., will be required to stand on the House floor and receive a formal reprimand. The resolution also directs the Ethics Committee to launch an investigation into Schiff.
Rep. Adam Schiff gaggles with reporters as he walks down the steps of the House of Representatives at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, June 21, 2023 in Washington, DC.The House on Wednesday took the rare step of censuring one of its own members, Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff, over his criticisms of then-President Donald Trump and his role in leading the first impeachment inquiry into the former president.
But the author of the resolution, freshman Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., said this week she had secured support from the 20 GOP dissenters after she removed language about a fine. "The perpetrator of this web of deceit became mainstays on cable news, waking up every morning with one goal: to lie, lie, lie to the American people that there was direct evidence of Russia collusion," Luna said in a floor speech before the vote.
In January, Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., a top Trump ally, single-handedly removed Schiff and Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., from the Intelligence panel.
