Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene introduced her House resolution to censure \u2018Squad\u2019 member Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., accusing her of \u2018antisemitic activity\u2019 and \u2018sympathizing with terrorist organizations.\u2019<\/p>\n

Greene dropped her resolution to force a House vote to censure Tlaib on Thursday, the day after the House elected its new speaker, Louisiana Republican Rep. Mike Johnson.<\/p>\n

\u2018I just introduced my resolution to censure Rashida Tlaib as privileged to force a House vote in two legislative days,\u2019 Greene wrote online.<\/p>\n

\u2018Tlaib led a pro-Hamas insurrection into the Capitol complex, has repeatedly displayed her anti-Semitic beliefs, and shown her hatred for Israel,\u2019 she continued.<\/p>\n

\u2018She must be held accountable and censured,\u2019 Greene added.<\/p>\n

Greene read her resolution on the House floor on Thursday while introducing the legislation.<\/p>\n

Tlaib published a press release on Thursday attacking Greene\u2019s censure resolution as \u2018unhinged\u2019 and \u2018deeply Islamophobic.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Marjorie Taylor Greene\u2019s unhinged resolution is deeply Islamophobic and attacks peaceful Jewish anti-war advocates,\u2019 Tlaib said. \u2018I am proud to stand in solidarity with Jewish peace advocates calling for a ceasefire and an end to the violence.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018I will not be bullied, I will not be dehumanized, and I will not be silenced,\u2019 the \u2018Squad\u2019 Democrat continued. \u2018I will continue to call for ceasefire, for the immediate delivery of humanitarian aid, for the release of hostages and those arbitrarily detained, and for every American to be brought home.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018I will continue to work for a just and lasting peace that upholds the human rights and dignity of all people, and ensures that no person, no child has to suffer or live in fear of violence,\u2019 she added.<\/p>\n

Greene previously told Fox News Digital that the Democratic Party \u2018has done nothing to hold [Tlaib] accountable\u2019 and have \u2018done nothing to rein her in, and no one else here has done it.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018And so I thought it was right to list examples of \u2013 this isn\u2019t just new,\u2019 Greene said. \u2018This isn\u2019t a one-off thing. This is exactly who she is.\u2019<\/p>\n

Greene accused Tlaib of leading a pro-Palestinian\u00a0protest on Capitol Hill last week. Hundreds of demonstrators called for a ceasefire after the terror group Hamas staged an unprecedented, bloody incursion from the Palestinian exclave of Gaza into southern Israel on Oct. 7, killing hundreds of civilians and prompting an ongoing response from the Israeli military.<\/p>\n

Tlaib, the only Palestinian-American member of Congress, spoke at the protest, during which activists took over much of the ground floor at the Cannon House Office Building.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In those comments, she blamed Israel for bombing a hospital in Gaza \u2013 remarks she did not retract after multiple intelligence agencies said that existing proof indicated the blast came from a misfired Hamas rocket.<\/p>\n

Greene called the protest \u2018an insurrection\u2019 in her resolution.<\/p>\n

In the resolution, Greene also referenced Tlaib\u2019s endorsement of a slogan used by Hamas and the Palestine Liberation Organization. She also recalled Tlaib\u2019s past comments in which she called Israel \u2018an apartheid government.\u2019<\/p>\n
