Adam Schiff<\/h2>\n<p>A group of Republicans in the House of Representatives made a bold decision on Wednesday night. While the rest of their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/adam-schiff-censure-the-six-republicans-who-did-not-vote-for-resolution\/\" title=\"Six Republicans abstain from voting on Adam Schiff censure resolution.\">party successfully voted<\/a> to censure Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), these Republicans chose to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/book-obama-enamored-with-beto-orourke-skeptical-of-joe-biden-in-2020-democratic-primary\/\" title=\"Book: Obama \u2018Enamored\u2019 with Beto O\u2019Rourke, Skeptical of Joe Biden in 2020 Democratic Primary\">remain neutral<\/a>. This unexpected move has caught the attention of many.<\/p>\n<h3>The Allegations Against Schiff<\/h3>\n<p>Schiff has been accused of abusing the trust of his constituents by pushing the theory that former President Donald Trump colluded with Russia in the 2016 election. This is not the first time House Republicans have attempted to censure Schiff for his actions.<\/p>\n<h3>The Six Conservative Lawmakers<\/h3>\n<p>So, who are these six conservative lawmakers who decided to vote &#8220;present&#8221; instead of condemning Schiff? Most of them are members of the House Ethics Committee, which adds an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nba-players-were-right-to-worry-about-a-shortened-offseason-injury-spike-proves-it\/\" title=\"NBA Players Were Right To Worry About A Shortened Offseason, Injury Spike Proves It\">interesting twist<\/a> to their decision. Here they are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Rep. Michael Guest (R-MS)<\/strong>, a member of the House Ethics Committee<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rep. Dave Joyce (R-OH)<\/strong>, a member of the House Ethics Committee<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rep. John Rutherford (R-FL)<\/strong>, a member of the House Ethics Committee<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rep. Michelle Fischbach (R-MN)<\/strong>, a member of the House Ethics Committee<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rep. Andrew Garbarino (R-NY)<\/strong>, a member of the House Ethics Committee<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One of these lawmakers, Rep. Dave Joyce, explained his decision to vote &#8220;present&#8221; instead of prejudging ahead of an investigation. As a member of the House Ethics Committee, he believes it is appropriate to maintain impartiality until the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/new-york-legislators-unhappy-with-pace-of-cuomo-impeachment\/\" title=\"New York Legislators Unhappy With Pace of Cuomo Impeachment\">committee completes<\/a> its investigation.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that a censure vote does not remove a lawmaker from office or impose any real punishment. However, it is a symbolic vote that expresses dissatisfaction towards a lawmaker&#8217;s voting record or personal conduct. This move could have consequences for Schiff as he seeks to replace the retiring Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) in the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\">click here<\/a> to visit The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few Republicans in the House chose to stay neutral while the rest of their party voted to censure Rep.
