Dems weigh rare censure against Rep. Randy Fine over anti-Muslim post

Democrats are privately weighing a forced censure vote against Rep. Randy Fine for anti-Muslim remarks, with some Congressional Progressive Caucus members pushing the move if Speaker Johnson doesn’t act. Support within Democrats is mixed, leadership stance is unclear, and the earliest possible vote would be after the upcoming recess. Some see it as warranted accountability, while others worry it could backfire and boost Fine’s profile.

Congressional Backlash Grows Over Rep. Fine's Anti-Muslim Post

Rep. Randy Fine faces mounting calls for censure and resignation after posting that he would choose dogs over Muslims, prompting broad condemnation from Democrats and some Republicans and intensifying pressure on Speaker Mike Johnson to strip him of committee posts. Fine defended the remarks on Newsmax, shared dog memes, and drew further scrutiny for past anti-Muslim comments and hardline positions toward Muslims and Palestinians. The House debate over censure thresholds and consequences remains unresolved, while some Republicans offered limited backing and Democrats pressed for action.
