Breaking News: House GOP boots Omar from Foreign Affairs Committee

House Republicans successfully voted to remove Rep. Ilhan Omar from the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Thursday, fulfilling a long-sought vow from GOP leaders.

Republican leaders worked fervently for more than a week to secure enough votes to pass the resolution, which cited the Minnesota progressive's past controversial comments about Israel. A few GOP members had suggested they would oppose Omar's ouster due to bigger concerns — namely, a desire to not go tit-for-tat with Democrats by using forcible committee removal against the opposing party — but in the end, Republicans mostly united in support.

The vote marks the third time in recent years that an opposing party in power has forcibly removed a member in the minority from panel positions. Democrats last Congress moved to remove GOP Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) and Paul Gosar (Ariz.) over incendiary comments and social media posts towards sitting lawmakers.
