The Missouri state lawmaker who said she hoped President Trump would be assassinated was formally reprimanded by her colleagues.
The Missouri Senate voted Wednesday to censure Maria Chappelle-Nadal over the controversial comment, which she posted on Facebook last month.
The censure resolution is a formal expression of the Senate's disappointment in Chappelle-Nadal's conduct.
She gets to keep her seat for now, but lawmakers can always circle back to the issue and expel her.
Chappelle-Nadal eventually deleted the offending post and apologized.
"I made a mistake, and I'm owning up to it," Chappelle-Nadal said during a press conference.
But despite numerous calls for her resignation, Chappelle-Nadal says she doesn't plan to step down.
