Instead of ousting her, like some Republicans wanted, the Missouri
Senate instead voted to publicly censure her. In Wednesday’s resolution,
they again called for her to resign and warned that she could still be
kicked out later.
She soon apologized for the comment, saying it was made in
frustration over Trump’s response to white supremacist violence in
Charlottesville, but refused to resign.
Chappelle-Nadal told KMOV in
August, “I posted something on my personal Facebook and I should not
have done that, and for that I am sorry for that. But I am not going to
shy away from what caused that anger at all, I’m not going to shy away
from that.”
Chappelle-Nadal had previously been removed from her committee assignments.
