Critics of Boebert's 'chest feed' remark called it homophobic and insulting to the estimated 228,000 same-sex parents raising children in the United States.
"I apologize to anyone in the Muslim community I offended with my comment about Rep Omar," Boebert wrote. She said her office had reached out to Omar's office to speak to her directly.
Boebert's tweet marked one of the few times that she has ever apologized for insulting a Democratic official. She offered no such apology earlier this month after mocking Buttigieg for taking"maternity leave" to"figure out how to chest feed" his children.
