Progressive Democrats rally around Ilhan Omar in face of 'Islamophobic' censure resolution

Progressive Democrats are rallying around “Squad” member Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), who is facing a censure resolution that accuses her of antisemitic remarks, with many calling the effort “Islamophobic.”

Congressional Progressive Caucus Chairwoman Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) and Whip Greg Casar (D-TX) released a statement in support of Omar on Wednesday, blasting the censure move as a “political stunt.”
