House Censures Arizona Republican Rep. Paul Gosar for Violent Video Targeting AOC

HeadlineNov 18, 2021

The House has voted to censure Republican Congressmember Paul Gosar for posting an animated video on social media in which he murders Congressmember Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and attacks President Biden. Gosar has refused to apologize and retweeted the video just minutes after the House censured him; he then deleted the post less than an hour later. Gosar is the first lawmaker to be censured in more than a decade. He was also stripped of his committee assignments. Just two Republicans voted in favor of censure: Adam Kinzinger of Illinois and Liz Cheney of Wyoming.
