LaMonica McIver escapes House censure with five GOP helpers

Published September 3, 2025 4:31pm ET



House Democrats staved off a censure resolution for Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) after a bipartisan chamber voted to table the resolution on Wednesday.

The resolution, brought by Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA) before the House went on its six-week recess and again on Tuesday, would censure McIver for allegedly impeding federal officers at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in New Jersey. It also sought to strip her of her assignment to the Homeland Security Committee.
