At least one Republican lawmaker is looking to censure Rep. Jasmine Crockett after the foulmouthed Texas Democrat referred to disabled Texas Governor Greg Abbott as “Governor Hot Wheels.”

Republican Rep. Randy Weber, also representing Texas, told Fox News Digital he will be introducing resolution to censure - i.e., publicly reprimand - his fellow Lone Star lawmaker “imminently,” calling Crockett’s language “reprehensible.”

"The story of our great governor of Texas is one of unwavering resilience and perseverance. Meanwhile, the actions of Jasmine Crockett – stooping to vile levels of discrimination and despicable political attacks – are nothing short of reprehensible," Weber told Fox News Digital.

Weber’s resolution argues Crockett’s language was “discriminatory in nature" and "the latest in a continued series of inappropriate comments expressed by the representative from Texas.”

Crockett, who has become known in recent months for being loud, brash, and…well, ghetto, was speaking at a Human Rights Campaign event when she cracked jokes about the “hot a**” weather in Texas before mocking Abbott and his need of a wheelchair.

"Y’all know we got Governor Hot Wheels down there – come on now! And the only thing hot about him is that he is a hot a-- mess, honey," Crockett said, channeling her inner Madea, but somehow with about a truckload less class.

Abbott, who will use a wheelchair for the rest of his life, was paralyzed at the young age of 26 when an oak tree fell on him and crushed his spine while he was out for a jog.
