Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA) was the target of a censure resolution offered by the chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus for a controversial post he posted on X about Haitians that Democrats are slamming as “racist” and “vile” rhetoric.

Black Caucus Chairman Steven Horsford (D-NV) introduced a censure resolution on Wednesday regarding Higgins’s post as privileged, meaning House leadership has two legislative days to make a decision. With the House now in recess until after the 2024 election, it is likely Horsford’s resolution will not be dealt with until November.
