Republicans for the Rule of Law, a conservative group opposed to President Donald Trump, has launched another campaign blasting the commander-in-chief, reports Newsweek.
The group is posting anti-Trump billboards in 12 congressional districts represented by Republicans. Representatives Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, Fred Upton of Michigan, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Francis Rooney of Florida, and John Katko of New York are among the GOP lawmakers targeted by the campaign.
The lawmakers are being pressured because they have shown willingness to “assert their independence” and stand up to Trump, in the past, according to the group.
“What is Trump hiding?” the billboards — juxtaposed with photographs of high-ranking current and former Trump administration officials with duct tape over their mouths — say.
The photographs of officials blocked from testifying before the United States Congress by the Trump White House are meant to demonstrate that the president has been obstructing congressional investigations, according to the group.
