119th (2025–2027)
H.Res. 202
This resolution formally censures Representative Lauren Boebert of Colorado for disparaging and racist comments she made about Representative Al Green of Texas. Specifically, on March 7, 2025, Boebert used a derogatory phrase during a media interview that the resolution characterizes as offensive and a breach of House decorum. If passed, the censure would require Boebert to appear on the House floor while the Speaker publicly reads the censure resolution aloud. A censure is a formal rebuke from the House but does not remove the member from office or impose financial penalties—it is primarily a statement of disapproval meant to express the chamber's condemnation of the member's conduct. The resolution was referred to the House Committee on Ethics for consideration.
