Omar’s Statement on Resolution to Condemn Bigotry Toward Haitian People | 2024-09-20 | 2024 | 2024-09 | Democrat | House | MN | Ilhan Omar | O000173 | omar.house.gov | omar | https://omar.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON – Today, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) released the following statement on her support for a resolution condemning bigotry toward Haitian people. Members of the Haiti Caucus, Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost, Congresswoman Yvette Clarke, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, and Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, authored this resolution. "I stand firmly behind this resolution to condemn the rise in bigotry and misinformation directed at the Haitian community. The disgusting lies made about Haitians in Springfield, Ohio spread by Donald Trump and J.D. Vance, have resulted in over 30 bomb threats, a mass shooting threat, and harassment. This hate speech is designed to dehumanize Haitian immigrants, a routine part of Donald Trump’s playbook to demonize and weaponize hate against immigrants and people of color. This vile rhetoric must be widely condemned which is why I’m proud to be an original cosponsor of this resolution to affirm our shared humanity.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T21:43:57Z |
