共和党众议员托马斯·马西在2026年美国中期选举后批评本党，认为共和党失去支持是因为未能兑现将美国人利益放在首位、避免再次发动战争以及起诉人口贩卖犯罪的承诺。
Republican Representative Thomas Massie has criticized his own party following the 2026 US midterm elections, arguing that Republicans lost support because they failed to honor promises on putting Americans first, avoiding another war and prosecuting sex traffickers.
肯塔基州众议员马西周二晚在X平台发帖称，选举结果不应被视为对民主党或社会主义原则的认可。相反，他说，选民是在追究共和党违背承诺的责任。
In a post on X on Tuesday night, the Kentucky congressman said the election outcome should not be viewed as an endorsement of Democrats or socialist principles. Instead, he said, voters were holding Republicans accountable for what he described as broken promises.“Tonight’s outcome isn’t about placing faith in Democrats or socialist principles; it’s about holding Republicans accountable for betraying their promises,” Massie wrote.
他写道：“今晚的结果不是关于对民主党或社会主义原则的信任；而是关于追究共和党背叛承诺的责任。”随后他列出了共和党需要做的三件事：“将美国人利益放在首位”、“不发动另一场战争”以及“起诉人口贩卖犯罪”。这些言论是在11月3日中期选举计票进行之际、国会控制权悬而未决的背景下发表的。马西的言论聚焦于三个议题，这些议题在其与共和党领导层及特朗普政府的分歧中尤为突出。
He then listed three things Republicans needed to do: “put Americans First”, “not start another war” and “prosecute sex traffickers”. The remarks came as votes were being counted in the November 3 midterm elections, with control of Congress at stake. Massie's message focused on three issues that have featured prominently in his disagreements with the Republican leadership and the Trump administration.

Democrats score Senate wins in red states, flip key governor races in midterms blow to TrumpMassie criticizes US involvement in Iran warMassie has repeatedly challenged the Trump administration's foreign policy, particularly its military involvement in Iran. On September 15, 2026, he introduced an eight-article impeachment resolution against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, accusing him of exceeding his authority in the conduct of the war in Iran and other military operations. ABC News reported on Massie's impeachment effort, which he presented in a speech on the House floor.
众议院为中期选举竞选休会前，该决议未获表决。据美联社9月16日报道，马西批评议长迈克·约翰逊过早结束众议院会期。
The resolution did not receive a vote before the House adjourned for the midterm election campaign. In a September 16 report, the Associated Press reported that Massie criticized Speaker Mike Johnson for ending the House session early.
在长达一小时的议场发言中，他主张议员本应留在华盛顿，以解决通胀、杰弗里·爱泼斯坦调查以及美国卷入伊朗战争等问题。特朗普宣布外层空间为“全人类的领域”；在中期选举期间设立“反共周”爱泼斯坦档案仍是马西批评的核心马西提到起诉人口贩运者，也反映了他推动杰弗里·爱泼斯坦调查更加透明的诉求。这位共和党议员曾与民主党众议员罗·卡纳合作，共同提出《爱泼斯坦档案透明法案》，要求司法部公开与爱泼斯坦相关的记录。
During an hour-long floor speech, he argued that lawmakers should have remained in Washington to address inflation, the Jeffrey Epstein investigation and US involvement in the Iran war. Trump declares outer space 'province of all humans'; coins 'Anti-Communism week' amid midterm electionsEpstein files remain central to Massie's criticismMassie's reference to prosecuting sex traffickers also reflects his campaign for greater transparency in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The Republican lawmaker worked with Democratic Representative Ro Khanna to introduce the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which required the Justice Department to release records related to Epstein.
根据众议院书记官的官方投票记录，该法案于2025年11月18日以427票对1票在众议院通过。它于2025年11月19日成为第119-38号公法。马西继续施压司法部公开记录。2026年8月，他和卡纳提出了第二项措施——《爱泼斯坦档案透明法案II》，该法案将允许受害者、州检察长和国会议员就司法部涉嫌未遵守披露法的行为向法院提起挑战。细节载于卡纳的国会公告中。
The legislation passed the House by 427 votes to one on November 18, 2025, according to the House Clerk's official voting record. It became Public Law 119-38 on November 19, 2025. Massie continued pressing the Justice Department over the release of the records. In August 2026, he and Khanna introduced a second measure, the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, which would allow victims, state attorneys general and members of Congress to challenge the department in court over alleged failures to comply with the disclosure law. The details were outlined in Khanna's congressional announcement
