The gathering took place in late January at a cigar bar in Annapolis, the state capital. Several legislators who were there told Darryl Barnes, the chairman of the Legislative Black Caucus of Maryland, that Ms. Lisanti had used the slur, he said in an interview on Wednesday. The 57-member caucus is calling for her resignation, he added.

Ms. Lisanti’s language was “totally offensive,” Mr. Barnes said, adding that it is “just not doable” for her to remain in office. Mr. Barnes praised the censure vote and said it had strengthened calls for her resignation from the Legislative Black Caucus of Maryland and the Maryland Legislative Latino Caucus.

Michael E. Busch, the Democratic speaker of the state’s House of Delegates, said in a statement on Tuesday that Ms. Lisanti had been stripped of her position as chairwoman of the Unemployment Insurance Subcommittee. After the censure vote, he said he also removed her from the House Economic Matters Committee.

“As speaker, I will not allow this House to be torn apart by hurtful and divisive slurs,” he said in a statement Thursday night. “I demand that every member treat each other with the respect and dignity that they deserve — and treat the citizens of Maryland that way.”

Ms. Lisanti apologized earlier this week, saying that she was ashamed, would not repeat the word and had agreed to step down from her leadership position and participate in sensitivity training.

When The Post initially questioned her about the episode, she said she did not recall using the slur. But she also said she was “sure” she had used it in the past.

“I’m sure everyone has used it,” she told The Post in an article published Monday. “I’ve used the F-word. I used the Lord’s name in vain.”
