Alaska Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski became the latest to face a local censure for voting to convict Donald Trump during his second impeachment trial, leaving just Susan Collins of Maine and Mitt Romney of Utah to be the only GOP lawmakers left unpunished.
During the trial, Murkowski, Collins and Romney joined Senators Richard Burr (R-NC), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Ben Sasse (R-NE) and Pat Toomey (R-PA) along with all 48 Democrats and two independents in finding Trump guilty of inciting the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
