Arizona's Democrat Party on Saturday formally censured Sen. Kyrsten Sinema for blocking the party's voting-rights legislation.
The party's Executive Board approved the censure prior to its annual convention being held Saturday.
While we take no pleasure in this announcement, the ADP Executive Board has decided to formally censure Senator Sinema as a result of her failure to do whatever it takes to ensure the health of our democracy.
The resolution warned that if she didn't vote to reform the U.S. Senate's filibuster rule to help pass Democrats' voting-rights legislation, the party's executive board would have the power to issue a vote of no confidence or issue a formal censure.
Sinema's recent vote to uphold the Senate's filibuster rule aided in killing the legislation.
"The Senate voted on Schumer's motion to overrule the legislative filibuster; the motion failed 48-52. Sens. Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema, two moderate Democrats oppose to the reform, voted against Schumer's gambit," the outlet said.
Democrats were turning against Sinema in the 2024 primary with nearly three-quarters expressing a desire to replace her with another Democrat, according to a Public Opinion Pulse survey OH Predictive Insights released in November.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
