Rep. Ilhan Omar Faces Censure Over Controversial Remarks About Jewish Students

A resolution to censure Rep. Ilhan Omar has been introduced by Rep. Don Bacon following her divisive comments at Columbia University.

Rep. Ilhan Omar characterized some Jewish students as 'pro-genocide' during a visit to Columbia University, sparking widespread criticism.
The resolution accuses Omar of perpetuating antisemitism and inflaming potential violence against Jewish communities.
This marks another instance of censure for Omar, who has previously been criticized and removed from committees over her comments on Israel.
House Democrats have expressed concern but have not fully endorsed the censure, highlighting internal party tensions.
The censure resolution is not privileged, indicating it may not see an immediate vote in the House.
