CPAC doesn’t want Sen. Mitt Romney’s shadow darkening the door at its annual conference.
The Conservative Political Action Committee formally disinvited the Utah Republican from its high-profile conference next month, after he voted in favor of new witnesses in President Trump’s impeachment trial.

Conservative Republican Sen. Mike Lee stuck up for his colleague from Utah.
Mitt Romney is a good friend and an excellent Senator. We have disagreed about a lot in this trial. But he has my respect for the thoughtfulness, integrity, and guts he has shown throughout this process. Utah and the Senate are lucky to have him.
