Washington, D.C. - Today, U.S. Representative Randy Weber announced the introduction of a resolution to censure Representative Jasmine Crockett of Texas. The resolution stems from comments Crockett made at a Human Rights Campaign event on Saturday, May 22nd, where she referred to Texas Governor Greg Abbott as “Governor Hot Wheels” and a “hot ass mess,” remarks that Rep. Weber considers unbecoming of a Member of Congress.
“The story of our great Governor of Texas is one of unwavering resilience and perseverance. Meanwhile, the actions of Jasmine Crockett—stooping to vile levels of discrimination and despicable political attacks—are nothing short of reprehensible,” said Rep. Weber. “She must be censured and held accountable for the venomous rhetoric she spews as a representative of the Democratic Party. It’s painfully obvious she was never taught a single thing about Texas class, as her behavior is a disgrace to everything Texas and the United States stands for.”
