House Republicans are divided over a recent proposal to expunge former President Trump's second impeachment from the House records, with many lawmakers concerned it could harm them in upcoming elections.

House Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., proposed the largely symbolic move last week. It remains to be seen whether they have the votes to move forward, however, as some GOP members are outright opposed to the effort and others harbor campaign concerns.

CNN's Manu Raju asked Rep. Don Bacon, R-Neb., whether he would support the move last week.

"Not at this point, no," Bacon responded. "It sounds a little bit weird to me. It is what it is, it happened."

Meanwhile, Reps. Dan Newhouse, R-Wash., and David Valadao, R-Calif., both voted to impeach Trump following Jan. 6, 2021 and are sure to oppose any effort to remove the stain.
