Rep. Ilhan Omar responds to Alabama GOP’s resolution to expel her from Congress

The Minnesota Representative responded to a resolution approved by Alabama Republicans that called for Omar to be expelled from Congress, saying: “I was elected with 78% of the vote by the people of Minnesota’s 5th District, not the Alabama Republican Party.”

Sorry, @ALGOPHQ, but this is a representative democracy.

I was elected with 78% of the vote by the people of Minnesota's 5th District, not the Alabama Republican Party.

If you want to clean up politics, maybe don’t nominate an accused child molester as your Senate candidate? https://t.co/r9NvsZKRUw

Many of these same Alabama Republicans accusing Omar of having a “disturbing record of using anti-Semitic language” backed Roy Moore, who said the last time America was great was when black people were enslaved.

Alabama Republicans recently had…

1. A Governor who resigned after a shady affair and illegal coverup

2. A Speaker of the House who was convicted of 11 felony ethics violations

3. A US Senate candidate who’s accused of being child molester

Alabama is also one of the most federally dependent states, so it is in no position to tell Minnesota, one of the least federally dependent states, who it should send to Congress. They are subsidizing your budget!

Alabama Republicans, you can count on Minnesota voters re-electing Ms. Ilhan!

Maybe concern yourself with this instead:
