“Representation matters.

We didn’t come to Congress to be silent.

We came to Congress to be a voice for families who are displaced in refugee camps and those seeking justice around the world.

Because that’s what this child survivor of war would have wanted.”

—Ilhan Omar

#IStandWithIlhan

“As a proud Jew & proud friend of Ilhan Omar, I don't need any of my Republican colleagues to defend me against anti Semitism.

Ilhan Omar should not have been removed from the Foreign Affairs Committee.”

—Rep Jan Schakowsky

You don't have to agree with everything (or anything) naturalized US citizen Rep. Ilhan Omar says to stand with her tonight. I hope you will RETWEET this if, like me, your response to the vile chants of "Send her back!" at Trump's hateful North Carolina rally is #IStandWithIlhan.
