Tracker:Cheney, the third highest-ranking Republican in the House, was one of 10 House Republicans to support the second impeachment of President Donald Trump (R) following the January 6, 2021, breach of the U.S. Capitol. House Republicans held a vote by secret ballot on February 3, 2021, regarding whether Cheney should be removed from leadership because of her vote to impeach Trump. Cheney retained her position with 145 votes to keep her in place, 61 to remove her, and one present vote. Beginning in late April 2021, several Republicans began to publicly criticize Cheney again for her comments against Trump and his allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election. On May 12, 2021, Cheney was voted out of leadership by a voice vote in a private meeting.
Cheney was elected to be chairwoman of the Republican Conference in the 116th Congress when House Republicans held their leadership elections on November 14, 2018. She was elected by a unanimous voice vote.
