I have called up my censure motion and will be bringing the vote to hold Adam Schiff accountable to the floor tomorrow. 

I have spoken to many of my collegues. A majority of the 20 will be changing their vote to support the motion, as well as other Members who were not in town for the initial vote have let me/my office know they will be voting with us.  

We have secured the number of votes needed to censure Adam Schiff and refer him to Ethics. 

To be clear, this is not retribution. The GOP recently voted to refer one of our own to Ethics for investigation. The fact is, as you saw today with Hunter Biden and the DOJ, there is a double standard of justice in this country. 

It is well within my right as a Congresswoman to file a privileged motion and hold Adam Schiff accountable for abusing and exploiting his official position and bringing dishonor to the House of Representatives. I am fully aware of the constitutionality of it all and that is what this is about. 

I look forward to restoring honor to the House of Representatives this Wednesday and appreciate the Members who have come forward to support this historical censure in an effort to bring accountability and trust back to this very sacred institution. 

It is important to remember that in Congress, although we hold the House, we do not have the Senate or the White House. We have a select number of tools, like these privileged motions and the Holman rule, that we can utilize as individual Members that will not go to die in the Senate. 

As I have stated before, I am representing the interests of those who trusted me to come here and do the right thing as well as those who have felt that their voices have been ignored and wishes disregarded.
