WASHINGTON -- U.S. Congressman Juan Ciscomani (AZ-06) on Thursday released a statement following his vote to table a motion to censure Adam Schiff:

"Adam Schiff has clearly behaved dangerously and irresponsibly, which is why earlier this year I supported his removal from the House Intelligence Committee.

"This week's vote was a procedural motion, not a vote to censure. A vote to censure, which included fines, should be taken seriously, which is why I disagreed with Pelosi’s arbitrary censuring and unconstitutional fines on Republicans.
