Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) was censured by the U.S. House of Representatives on Tuesday for her support of genocide against the state of Israel.
In a 234-188 vote, 22 Democrats joined 212 Republicans in voting for the censure while four Republicans voted against it. A total of four members voted present while six did not vote.
The resolution to censure Tlaib slammed her for “promoting false narratives regarding the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel and for calling for the destruction of the state of Israel.”
The resolution correctly noted that Israel has existed on its lands for thousands of years and that the U.S. played a “critical role in returning Israel to those lands in 1948 immediately following the Holocaust in recognition of its right to exist and as an indelible signal of our solidarity with the Jewish people.”
