Washington, January 16 (RHC)-- In the U.S., House Republican leaders have voted unanimously to block Iowa Congressmember Steve King from serving on any committees amid the outrage following his comments in a recent New York Times interview.
King praised white supremacy, saying: “White nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization -- how did that language become offensive?”
Meanwhile, House Democrats are preparing their own actions, including resolutions to censure King over the comments.
