Arizona GOP censures Rusty Bowers after Jan. 6 testimony abc15
PHOENIX — The Arizona Republican Party has censured state House Speaker Rusty Bowers after his gripping public testimony to the Jan. 6 panel about Donald Trump's relentless pressure to overturn the 2020 presidential election.
The censure is largely symbolic, but it's illustrative of the iron grip that Trump continues to have over the Republican Party, even after a mob of his supporters broke into the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in an effort to stop Joe Biden from becoming president. A spokesman for Bowers, Andrew Wilder, did not immediately respond to a phone call and text message seeking comment.
Bowers is term-limited in the House and is running for the state Senate against David Farnsworth, a former Republican senator who echoes Trump's lies about the 2020 election.
