I said it months ago with Rep. Lawler, and Piker has proved it again,\u201d said Congressman Josh Gottheimer (NJ-5). \u201cTelling millions of followers that Jewish Americans are bringing violence on themselves is blatantly antisemitic and one of the oldest tropes in the book. This is exactly why we introduced this resolution, and there\u2019s no excuse left for Republican leadership to keep sitting on it. Anyone still supporting or campaigning with these personalities is complicit. Let\u2019s bring the vote to the floor.\u201d\n\nGottheimer and Lawler introduced the resolution in April after Hasan Piker and commentator Candace Owens spread antisemitic conspiracy theories and hate-filled rhetoric to millions of followers. Piker\u2019s latest comments \u2014 targeting Michigan State Senator Jeremy Moss by name while suggesting Jewish Americans invite violence against themselves by supporting Israel \u2014 have drawn bipartisan condemnation.\n\nThe resolution reaffirms the United States\u2019 commitment to combating antisemitism and ensuring the safety and dignity of Jewish individuals and communities both online and offline.\n\nThe resolution can be found here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-08-26T05:33:32Z", "2026-08-26T05:34:56Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://gottheimer.house.gov/posts/release-gottheimer-calls-on-republican-leadership-to-bring-bipartisan-resolution-to-floor-next-week-condemning-bigot-streamers-hasan-piker-candace-owens"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.539753284305334, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
