The vote to determine House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney’s fate in leadership is scheduled for Wednesday morning, according to an announcement sent to members Friday. Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) is slated to initiate the call for the vote to oust the Wyoming lawmaker — the No.3 Republican in the House and daughter of Vice President Dick Cheney — who came under fire for her criticisms of former President Donald Trump. The meeting is slated to kick off at 9 a.m., the morning after House lawmakers arrive back to Washington after their two-week recess. The vote will mark the second time Cheney has faced an attempt to remove her from her leadership role this year. She overwhelmingly prevailed in a vote in February after a group of conservatives attempted to oust her shortly after her announcement that she would vote in favor of impeaching Trump for “incitement” of the Jan.
