Pete Buttigieg praises Liz Cheney as a 'Republican of conscience'

SPENCER, Iowa — Pete Buttigieg cited Liz Cheney as an example of a Republican of conscience during a trip aimed at wooing Democrats in GOP-held parts of Iowa.

“We’re not seeing a whole lot of conscience on Capitol Hill, though it is encouraging to see that there’s at least some lines for some members right now. Liz Cheney and a couple of others,” the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate told reporters over the weekend about the Wyoming congresswoman and third-ranking House Republican.
