Rep. Matt Gaetz: "While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition. There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I'll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as Attorney General."
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna: "Marn'i Washington has revealed names and claims she is being used as a scapegoat. This abhorrent behavior from FEMA will NOT be excused, and we need to look into the potential of criminal charges. American lives were put at risk, and we must hold those involved fully accountable."
FL Rep. Anna Eskamani: "This is great news but the ethics report should still be released & he resigned from the *current* Congress not the future Congress… feel free to fact-check me on this but he might be able to still return to Congress. I’m sure Trump will just nominate him for something else."
FL Sen. Shevrin Jones: "I thank Senate President @Sen_Albritton for trusting me to hold the Vice Chair position on the Rules Committee. The appointment of minority caucus members to serve as Vice Chairs of the three biggest committees in the Senate demonstrates President Albritton’s collegial, bipartisan approach to this upcoming session."
