Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., is facing a censure resolution after referring to some Jewish students as 'pro-genocide' during a visit to Columbia University. The resolution is being introduced by Rep. Don Bacon, R-Neb., who cited concerns that Omar's comments could incite violence against the Jewish community.
The incident took place during a demonstration at Columbia University, where students were protesting their school's financial ties to pro-Israel companies. Omar, a member of the progressive 'Squad,' visited the protest in solidarity with pro-Palestinian demonstrators and made the controversial remarks about Jewish students.
