“As leaders in this country, when we incite violence with depictions against our colleagues, that trickles down into violence in this country,” Rep. Ocasio-Cortez says regarding Rep. Gosar’s violent anime video depicting her.
The House plans to move forward with plans to formally rebuke Rep. Paul Gosar for posting a cartoon video that portrays him killing Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.The House plans to vote Wednesday on a resolution that both censures Republican Rep. Paul Gosar and removes him from his committee assignments, a source familiar with the situation confirmed to ABC News.
A spokesperson for McCarthy told ABC News that the Republican leader opposes the Democratic move to censure Gosar and remove him from his committee assignments. "The fact that they would not take some action themselves or make some comments themselves, which I have not seen, is a testament that perhaps they are rationalizing, as they rationalize other items of criminal behavior, this particular action," Hoyer said of Republicans.
A censure resolution requires a simple majority of lawmakers present and voting. If it is approved, Gosar could be forced to stand in the center of the House chamber as the resolution condemning his actions is read aloud.
