The House is once again spending significant floor time on efforts to publicly rebuke one of its own members.
A resolution to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib will get a vote this week, after a motion to table it was rejected Tuesday afternoon. The Michigan Democrat has been outspoken in her support for Palestine since the start of the Israel-Hamas war, drawing ire from some of her colleagues.
The resolution, introduced by Georgia Republican Rep. Rich McCormick, accuses Tlaib of “promoting false narratives” about Hamas’ surprise attack on Oct. 7 and “calling for the destruction of the state of Israel.” A vote is expected Wednesday.
