Longview Cowlitz County Republican leaders have joined their counterparts in Clark County, asking six-term GOP congresswoman Jaime Herrera Beutler to resign, and vowing to find a replacement for her in 2022 if she doesn’t.
The request sent last week was triggered by Herrera Beutler’s Jan. 13 vote to impeach former president Donald Trump, one of 10 Republican members of the House to join Democrats in the vote.
Trump told a cheering Conservative Political Action Committee meeting in Florida Sunday that Republicans need to “get rid of” all members of Congress who supported his removal from office for inciting the Jan. 6 insurrection and mob assault on the U.S. Capitol. He mentioned all, including Herrera Beutler, by name.
