The Republican National Committee (RNC) on Friday voted formally to censure GOP Reps. Liz Cheney (Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (Ill.) over their criticism of former President Trump and participation in the special House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
The resolution, which unanimously passed through the resolutions committee on Thursday, was included in a package with four other motions, including one to "hold Communist China accountable for Covid-19." The entire package passed by a voice vote at the RNC’s winter meeting in Salt Lake City.
