Mace to Force Censure Vote Seeking to Remove GOP Rep. Cory Mills From Key Panels

The privileged measure triggers a chamber vote within two legislative days.

Overview

  • Rep. Nancy Mace plans to introduce the resolution Wednesday night, with House leaders required to act by Friday.
  • The measure seeks to strip Rep. Cory Mills of his Armed Services and Foreign Affairs assignments.
  • Mace’s filing cites allegations including domestic abuse, stolen valor and financial misconduct, which Mills denies.
  • House Democrats briefly advanced a censure of Mills Tuesday then withdrew it after a GOP effort to censure Del. Stacey Plaskett failed, prompting accusations of a backroom deal that Mills’ office rejects.
  • Mace previously threatened censure after Mills opposed her Ilhan Omar measure, and Republicans including Marjorie Taylor Greene and Anna Paulina Luna have voiced support for disciplinary action.
