One-hundred and seventy-three House Republicans have backed a motion Friday to condemn House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) as Republicans remain poised to force a vote on the bill next week.
Over 170 House Republicans, or 88 percent, have cosponsored House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Biggs’ (R-AZ) H. Res. 604, according to a list obtained by Breitbart News. As of Friday night, only 24 House Republicans have yet to cosponsor the bill. H. Res. 604 would condemn Schiff for reading a fictional phone call between Zelensky and Trump into the record.
Schiff also allegedly lied about having never spoken to the Ukrainian intelligence officer “whistleblower.”
Rep. Biggs wanted to force a vote on the legislation this week but delayed the move after House Oversight and Reform Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings (D-MD) passed away. The Arizona conservative will reportedly force the vote Monday night.

Rep. Bob Latta (R-OH), the House Republican deputy whip, announced Thursday that he will back the motion to condemn House Intelligence Committee Chairman Schiff.
“His deliberate misrepresentation of the President’s phone call at a House Intel hearing was an attempt to shortchange what should be a fair, fact-based process,” Latta wrote in a tweet Thursday. “This is about fairness and doing what is right.”
I've signed onto the @RepAndyBiggsAZ motion to censure Rep Adam Schiff. His deliberate misrepresentation of the President’s phone call at a House Intel hearing was an attempt to shortchange what should be a fair, fact-based process. This is about fairness and doing what is right.
