A resolution passed last weekend
at the GOP summer meeting in Auburn called for Alabama’s elected
Congressional delegation to “proceed with the expulsion process” for
Ilhan Omar, a first-term Democratic Representative and one of the first
two Muslim women elected to the House. Omar has been criticized for her comments about Israel and America’s long-time support for its ally.
“Rep.
Omar has engaged in rhetoric that explicitly runs counter to American
values and patriotism by falsely accusing U.S. armed forces of
committing war crimes while on mission to liberate her home country of
Somalia,” the resolution noted, adding Omar also “dismissed the 9/11
terror attacks” and “sympathized with a convicted terrorist” by
advocating for “sentencing leniency.”
