Adams Statement on Prime Minister Netanyahus Decision to Deny Members of Congress from Entering Israel | 2019-08-16 | 2019 | 2019-08 | Democrat | House | NC | Alma Adams | A000370 | adams.house.gov | legacy | Charlotte, NC - Congresswoman Alma S. Adams, Ph.D. (NC-12) released the following statement after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided to deny Rep. Rashida Tlaib and Rep. Ilhan Omar from entering Israel: I am deeply disappointed in this decision, and very concerned that the choice to deny entry to two members of the House was encouraged by President Trump. His comments about Congresswomen Tlaib and Omar are beneath the dignity of his office and prove once again that he is unfit to serve. Any sitting Member of Congress should be welcome to visit Israel as a representative of the United States. The ability to express opposing views is a hallmark of democracy that both of our nations must uphold. I strongly urge Prime Minister Netanyahu to reconsider his decision. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
