House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) and other congressional Democrats have assured incumbent progressive Democrats—including Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), who has a long antisemitic history—that they will back them in the 2024 U.S. elections.
“Rep. Omar has been elected by her constituents three times and has consistently stood up for them, including through her service on the House Budget Committee,” said Jeffries. “As House democratic leader, I vigorously endorse her re-election and stand with her as we battle extreme MAGA Republicans for the future of our nation.”
