在其第二次正式谴责中怀俄明州共和党人利兹·切尼，该缔约国本周通过了一项决议，不再承认她为成员——但2022年竞选连任的切尼似乎对此漠不关心。
切尼的发言人杰里米·阿德勒(Jeremy Adler)说:“暗示利兹不是一个坚定的保守派共和党人是可笑的。“她受宪法誓言的约束。可悲的是，怀俄明州共和党领导层的一部分人已经放弃了这一基本原则，而是任由自己被一个危险而不理智的人的谎言所挟持。”
这项决议是象征性的，并没有剥夺切尼的任何有形权力，周六，怀俄明州共和党中央委员会以31票对29票的微弱优势通过了该决议。

2021年7月27日，众议员利兹·切尼在华盛顿的听证会上聆听。
这卡斯帕之星-论坛报报道了这份文件，该文件将切尼描绘成“在众议院共和党会议中造成了大规模的混乱、分散和分裂”，并“自豪地宣誓效忠民主党众议院议长佩洛西，以此为自己的个人利益服务，同时无视怀俄明州共和党人的利益、需求和期望。”
美国广播公司新闻已经联系到怀俄明州共和党寻求评论。
它是不是第一次了切尼是众议院特别委员会的副主席，该委员会负责调查1月6日袭击在国会大厦，她受到了自己政党的指责，因为这位国会女议员继续对前总统唐纳德·特朗普推翻2020年大选的企图表示反对。
怀俄明州共和党已经在2月份投票正式谴责切尼，此前她成为10名投票弹劾特朗普“煽动叛乱”的众议院共和党人人之一今年5月，她被解除了共和党会议主席的职务，随后她被解除了众议院第三号共和党人的职务——这是特朗普鼓励的反弹。
“当其他人领导我们的政党走上放弃法治的道路，加入前总统破坏我们民主的运动时，我不会坐视不管，”切尼在被驱逐前夕在众议院说。

2020年12月10日，众议员利兹·切尼在华盛顿美国国会大厦的新闻发布会上发言。
前副总统迪克·切尼的女儿称自己是宪法的直言不讳的被告和特朗普的反对者——代表一个以压倒性票数支持他的州。2020年，怀俄明州70%的选票投给了特朗普。
但是切尼在2020年的支持率也很高，在大选中获得了68.6%的选票，在共和党初选中获得了73.5%的选票。
尽管如此，对于该州唯一的众议院议员来说，中期选举可能是一个艰难的周期。
特朗普誓言要与投票弹劾他的共和党人对抗，尤其是对切尼的愤怒。他已经支持哈里特·哈格曼，一位2018年竞选怀俄明州州长的律师，在明年的初选中质疑2020年选举的合法性。
回应特朗普在一份声明中的背书自录音再现装置发出的高音，切尼说，“这里有一个声音咬给你:带来它。”
尽管切尼的投票记录将她描绘成一个有资历的共和党人，在政策问题上支持特朗普93%的时间-从上面78%她的众议院领袖继任者，纽约州众议员伊莉斯·斯特凡尼克，她拿着一个“A”等级全国步枪协会和96%的人等级来自保守的传统基金会(Heritage Foundation)，她对共和党同僚轻描淡写1月6日事件的批评，让她成为了该党的局外人。
尽管特朗普不断攻击，她的政党孤立她，但切尼并没有在战斗中退缩。
切尼上周在新罕布什尔州发表慷慨激昂的演讲时说:“面对这些虚假和危险的说法，政治领导人保持沉默，这是在帮助一位与法治和宪法开战的前总统。“我热爱我的政党及其历史和原则。但是我更爱我的国家。我会尽我所能保护她。”
切尼今年5月告诉美国广播公司新闻“本周”联合主持人乔纳森·卡尔，她知道她弹劾特朗普的投票在她的许多选民中不受欢迎，但她说，她致力于确保她所在州的选民理解她的推理——以及为什么这不应该意味着她的政治生涯的结束。
切尼说:“怀俄明州人民从根本上相信宪法，并忠于宪法和我们的誓言。“如果在唐纳德·特朗普决定要任命的人和这个人参加竞选的基础之间做出选择，那就是他们对某个人的忠诚，对唐纳德·特朗普的忠诚，一周中的每一天，我都会把我的记录和我对宪法的承诺以及我对怀俄明州人民的承诺与此相对立。”
美国广播公司“本周”联合主播玛莎·拉德达兹同时前往怀俄明州，她在那里与切尼的许多选民进行了交谈，其中包括怀俄明州格林河哈雷戴维森经销商老板丹尼斯·拉夫林，他说，在弹劾投票后，切尼的支持率正在下降。
“我认为投票选举你的良心是高尚的。但不一定是你能为你的政治生涯做出的最好的举动，”拉夫林说。"怀俄明州的绝大多数人对她的决定不满意。"
怀俄明州共和党初选定于明年8月举行。
Rep. Liz Cheney ousted from Wyoming GOP
In its second formal rebuke ofWyoming Republican Liz Cheney, the state party passed a resolution this week to no longer recognize her as a member -- but Cheney, up for reelection in 2022, appears unconcerned.
"It's laughable to suggest Liz is anything but a committed conservative Republican," said Jeremy Adler, Cheney's spokesperson. "She is bound by her oath to the Constitution. Sadly, a portion of the Wyoming GOP leadership has abandoned that fundamental principle, and instead allowed themselves to be held hostage to the lies of a dangerous and irrational man."
The resolution, which is symbolic and doesn't strip Cheney from any tangible power, cleared the Wyoming GOP Central Committee on Saturday by a narrow vote of 31-29.
TheCasper Star-Tribunereported on the document which paints Cheney as having "caused massive disruption, distraction and division within the House Republican Conference" and as having "proudly pledged allegiance to democrat Speaker of the House Pelosi, as a means of serving her own personal interests while ignoring the interests, needs and expectations of Wyoming Republicans."
ABC News has reached out to the Wyoming GOP for comment.
It'snot the first timeCheney, who serves as vice-chair of the House select committee investigating theJan. 6 attackon the Capitol, has been rebuked by her own party as the congresswoman continues to voice opposition to former President Donald Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
The Wyoming Republican Party had already voted in February to formally censure Cheney after she became one of 10 House Republicans to vote to impeach Trump for "incitement of insurrection." In May she was removed from her post as GOP conference chair, and her subsequent rank as the No. 3 Republican in the House stripped -- backlash encouraged by Trump.
"I will not sit back and watch in silence while others lead our party down a path that abandons the rule of law, and joins the former president's crusade to undermine our democracy," Cheney said on the House floor on the eve of that ousting.
The daughter of former vice president Dick Cheney has branded herself a vocal defendant of the Constitution and opponent of Trump -- representing a state that voted overwhelmingly for him. Seventy percent of Wyoming's vote went to Trump in 2020.
But Cheney's support in 2020 was also strong with 68.6% of the vote in the general election and an even stronger turnout in the Republican primary with 73.5% of the vote there.
Still, the midterms could prove to be a difficult cycle for the state's sole member of the House of Representatives.
Trump has vowed to campaign against the Republicans who voted to impeach him with a particular ire reserved for Cheney. He has already endorsed Harriet Hageman, a lawyer who ran for Wyoming governor in 2018, who has questioned the legitimacy of the 2020 election, in next year's primary race.
Responding to Trump's endorsement in atweet, Cheney said, "Here’s a sound bite for you: Bring it."
While Cheney's voting record paints her as a a credentialed Republican, siding with Trump on policy matters93% of the time-- up from the78%of her successor in House leadership, Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., -- and she carries an "A"ratingfrom the NRA and a 96%rankingfrom the conservative Heritage Foundation, her criticism to fellow Republicans for downplaying the events of Jan. 6 has made her a party outlier.
Despite Trump's persistent attacks and her party's isolation of her, Cheney is not backing down from the fight.
“Political leaders who sit silent in the face of these false and dangerous claims are aiding a former president who is at war with the rule of law and the Constitution," Cheney said in an impassioned speech in New Hampshire last week. "I love my party and its history and its principles. But I love my country more. And I will do all I can to defend her."
Cheney told ABC News "This Week" Co-Anchor Jonathan Karl in May she knew her vote to impeach Trump was not popular with many of her constituents but said she's committed to making sure voters in her state understand her reasoning -- and why it shouldn't mean the end of her political career.
"The people of Wyoming fundamentally believe in the Constitution and faithfulness to it and our oath," Cheney said. "If the choice is between somebody that Donald Trump decides he's going to anoint and that person's basis for being in this race is their loyalty to some person, to Donald Trump, every day of the week I will stack my record and my commitment to the Constitution and my commitment to people of Wyoming up against that."
ABC's "This Week" Co-Anchor Martha Raddatz traveled to Wyoming at the same time, where she spoke to many of Cheney's constituents including Dennis Laughlin, a Harley-Davidson dealership owner in Green River, Wyoming, who said Cheney is falling in popularity following the impeachment vote.
"I think voting your conscience is noble. But not necessarily the best move that you can make for your political career," Laughlin said. "The vast majority of people in the state of Wyoming are not happy with her decision."
The Wyoming Republican primary is scheduled for next August.
