House Lawmakers Censure Each Other, Propose New Rules

House members have been busy voting on measures to criticize their colleagues since returning from break, with both Democrats and Republicans targeting members of their own parties. Representative Jesus Chuy Garcia was formally reprimanded by Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, while Republicans attempted to censure Delegate Stacey Plaskett and Representative Cory Mills, but failed. House leadership blocked attempts to censure or expel Representative Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, who was indicted on fraud charges. In response, Representatives Don Bacon and Donald Beyer proposed new legislation to make it harder for House members to target each other. The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story. AI Powered.
