Congressman Morgan Luttrell (R-TX) has joined a resolution to censure Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) for her alleged antisemitic statements and failure to condemn Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel. In a strong statement, Luttrell expressed his concerns about Tlaib's actions and called for zero tolerance for antisemitism.

Luttrell criticized Tlaib for refusing to condemn the "evil, brutal attacks" carried out by Hamas terrorists. He stated, "Hamas terrorists have raped and murdered women, beheaded Jewish babies, burned Jewish children alive and killed Americans, yet Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib refused to condemn the evil, brutal attacks."

Furthermore, Luttrell expressed his dismay at Tlaib's justification of these vile actions and her characterization of Israel as an "apartheid state." He placed blame on Tlaib for attributing the barbarism of the terrorists to Israel, saying, "She justified their vile actions and called Israel an 'apartheid state,' placing blame on Israel for the barbarism of these terrorists."

Luttrell emphasized the need for a strong stance against antisemitism, especially within the halls of Congress. He stated, "There should be zero tolerance for this atrocious antisemitism in America, especially in the halls of Congress." By signing onto the resolution, Luttrell is making it clear that he believes Tlaib's actions and statements are unacceptable.

While Tlaib has not yet responded to the resolution or Luttrell's comments, it is clear that the issue of antisemitism and the condemnation of terrorist attacks on Israel continue to be a topic of debate and concern within the political sphere. The resolution to censure Tlaib highlights the strong views held by some members of Congress regarding these issues.

As this story develops, it remains to be seen how other lawmakers and the public will react to the resolution and the broader issue of antisemitism. The censure of a sitting member of Congress is a rare occurrence, and it underscores the significance of the allegations against Tlaib.

In the coming weeks, it is likely that this resolution will spark further discussions and debates surrounding antisemitism, free speech, and the role of elected officials in addressing sensitive and controversial topics. The outcome of these discussions will have implications for both the individuals involved and the broader political landscape.
