House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has responded to Israel’s decision to block Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), who have both been accused of making anti-Semitic remarks, from entering the country over their support for an international movement aimed at marginalizing the Jewish country.
In a statement on Aug. 15, Pelosi criticized Israel for the move, saying that it was “deeply disappointing.”
