I’m disappointed in Congresswoman Omar’s statements. At a time when anti-Semitism is on the rise across the country and around the world, we need to take extra care to engage one another in a respectful and inclusive manner. 1/3

Anti-Semitic tropes have hurt Jewish communities for thousands of years, including last year’s horrific shooting in Pittsburgh. We must speak out against anti-Semitism whenever we hear or see it, no matter what side of the aisle it comes from. 2/3

This is an important conversation to have, and I hope my colleagues will keep an open mind on how to achieve justice for ALL persecuted and marginalized communities. 3/3

I imagine it’s the subjugation of Palestinians she’s objecting to. I’m sure if the USA stops propping up Israel the comments (you describe as anti Semitic) will end. Seriously, give it a try. Condemn Israel’s apartheid state and see how quickly Congresswoman Omar comes around.

I dislike all forms of racism. But I think her comments have been misinterpreted.
