George Martinez over campaign finance violations, including a controversial Florida flight, despite him paying the maximum $5,300 penalty and reimbursing his campaign. The proposed censure aims to uphold public trust without removing him from office, while critics argue the Assembly should defer to voters. Some reps are instead calling for an investigation into alleged false testimony, record withholding, and misuse of funds, having already filed formal accusations. Martinez has apologized for the disruption. The Assembly Chair plans to delay votes to ensure proper procedural understanding, as censure and removal processes have little precedent.
