Fox News
Rep. Ilhan Omar on Wednesday issued a lengthy statement highlighting the historic ties between the Black and the Jewish communities and said she's committed to finding "solidarity" with both her Jewish and non-Jewish colleagues to fight injustices.
Omar on Wednesday seemed to soften her tone following the interview and drew similarities between her experience as a Muslim refugee and that of Jewish Americans escaping persecution. She said she wants to find common bonds with her colleagues because "what unites us is so much greater than what divides us." "Most of my colleagues across Congress may not be refugees themselves, but fleeing war and persecution only to find a refuge in the United States of America—*is* the Jewish-American experience," Omar said during a long Twitter thread. "This binds us."
