Ilhan Omar will remain on the House of Foreign Affairs Committee
NY Post, Mar 5, 2019

Rep. Ilhan Omar will keep her position on the House Foreign Affairs Committee despite demands that she step down for making remarks considered anti-Semitic.

Rep. Eliot Engel (D-Bronx), the committee chairman, issued a statement Tuesday night saying that booting her “will not solve the problem of anti-Semitism” and would merely be “retribution.”

Eleven Jewish organizations sent a letter to Engel and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi asking that Omar be removed from the committee, as have some Republicans.

Of course she will, in spite of consistent anti-Semetic comments

But Steve King gets kicked off his committees for one statement purposely taken out of context.

Meanwhile, the Rats are watering down their anti-Semitism bill to include anti-Muslim in it.

This fix is in.  The Rat leadership caved to a Freshman, and they are trying to save face.
