'Legitimatizes inequality': Tlaib and the Squad split from Democrats on two-state resolution

The four members of the House’s left-wing “Squad” opposed a resolution put forward by Democrats to support a two-state solution in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

“This resolution not only endorses an unrealistic, unattainable solution, one that Israel has made impossible, but also one that legitimatizes inequality, ethnic discrimination, and inhumane conditions,” Rep. Rashida Tlaib said Friday on the House floor. The Michigan Democrat has said previously that she supports a one-state solution because two states would enforce a “separate but equal” mentality.
