Congressman Adam Kinzinger, who voted to impeach President Trump, is frowned down upon in a statement from the Illinois GOP stressing unity.

The Illinois Republican Party released a statement on the matter.

“We strongly disagree with any Republican, Congressman Adam Kinzinger included, who voted to impeach President Trump or those who vote to convict him in the U.S. Senate, but we will let the voters be the arbiters of any vote taken by an elected official.”

The party is slated to proceed with its election for its new party chairman this week and is looking forward to a leader who could marry various points of view of the members.

“As we prepare to select a new chairman of the Illinois Republican Party on Saturday, it’s our collective belief that uniting the party will be the single greatest endeavor of the new chairman. Our elected officials must unite behind defeating President Biden’s radical left-wing agenda.”

“We cannot play into Democrat hands by fighting amongst each other, so we encourage all Republicans to focus on the future rather than relitigating the past,” the Illinois GOP statement said.
