A similar push led by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene failed last week, when the House voted against moving forward on a censure resolution.
Washington — A pair of Republican lawmakers are renewing an effort to punish Rep. Rashida Tlaib just days after she was spared a formal reprimand over her controversial comments on Israel.Republican Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Rich McCormick, who both represent Georgia, introduced separate resolutions on Monday seeking to censure Tlaib for what they called her 'antisemitic' remarks.
Tlaib posted a video on X on Friday that included footage of protesters in Michigan chanting 'from the river to the sea.' The Anti-Defamation League says the full slogan — 'from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free' — is an 'antisemitic slogan commonly featured in anti-Israel campaigns and chanted at demonstrations.
