House set to punish Gosar for violent video depicting killing of AOC

The House is set to censure Rep. Paul Gosar and boot him from his committees Wednesday over a violent social media post, representing a rare rebuke of a colleague that Speaker Nancy Pelosi deemed an "emergency."

“Violence against women, workplace harassment, legal matters in terms of threatening a member and threatening the president of the United States,” Pelosi said. “We have to address it immediately … it’s outrageous on the part of the Republican leadership not to act upon this.” The resolution will censure Gosar and remove him from both the House Oversight and Natural Resources committees. Ocasio-Cortez is also a member of the Oversight Committee.

A spokesperson for McCarthy said Tuesday the GOP leader opposes efforts by Democrats to punish Gosar. House Republican leadership is recommending a “no” vote Wednesday afternoon.

House plans vote Wednesday to censure GOP Rep. Gosar, remove him from committee over violent videoThe House plans to vote Wednesday on a resolution that both censures Republican Rep. Paul Gosar and removes him from the Committee on Oversight and Reform, a source familiar with the situation confirmed to ABC News. Gosar is just another Republican disgrace. He joins a long list Repubs that should NEVER be in an elected government office. Now isn’t that funny that Democrat’s will do this to a Republican but when Democrat’s use anti-somatic remarks, incite violence it’s ok. Every Democrat on house intelligence committee should have been removed but they are still there.
