Rep. Massie faces backlash after admitting to asking Republican leaders for votes in exchange for public thanks, prompting critics to call him to 'seriously reconsider' his position in Congress.
Congressman Adam Massie faced backlash over his admission of making a deal with Republican leaders to secure their support in favor of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's friend, Ghislaine Maxwell, in exchange for his vote on a bill against human trafficking. Critics called on him to 'seriously reconsider' his position and stance on the issue. Massie expressed regret over his previous actions but claimed he had not been informed that Epstein was facing charges at the time.
