Rashida tlaib

Michigan Representative Rashida Tlaib is locked in what could be a tight race to retain her House seat. A loss could deal a big blow to the foursome known as the Squad and their progressive agenda.

In a move that formalizes their political alliance, the four first-term progressives Democratic congresswomen known as "The Squad" have launched a fundraising organization to raise money for candidates who share their views and to advance progressive causes.

Concerns have been raised over worker safety in regards to issues such as social distancing and protective equipment at Amazon sites amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Hospitals are closing because now that they actually have to take care of sick people and not make money off of all these surgeries and for-profit schemes," Rashida Tlaib said Sunday.

Representative Rashida Tlaib was detained with members of the labor union Unite Here Friday in a protest against Delta Airlines at Detroit Metropolitan Airport. "We won't stop until we get #fairwages and #healthcare," Tlaib tweeted.

Rutgers University campus police removed a former Democratic assemblyman from a Muslims4Peace-organized event after he asked guest speaker, Michigan congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, "What about your anti-Semitism?"

"I think of communism when I think of Bernie," President Donald Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity in an interview this past weekend.

The representative from Michigan backed Sanders and responded to Clinton's criticism of the Democrat frontrunner.

Senator Bernie Sanders called out the Wall Street investment firm BlackRock in a video tweeted out on Tuesday. In the tweet, Sanders said, "Funding the slashing and burning of our planet's lungs is a disgrace."

Michigan Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib filed The Repeal Opportunity Zones Act of 2019 on Friday in an effort to address issues stemming from the Opportunity Zones program.

"This is pretty uncharted territory for many of us and even for Congress," the Democratic congresswoman said.

"If I had made a similar comment, people would be outraged and they would be calling for my resignation," said Detroit Police Chief James Craig.

"While facial recognition identifies a white man's gender 99% of the time, it misidentifies darker-skinned females up to 35% of the time," Tlaib wrote in a follow-up tweet.

"Can you imagine the outrage if I had put a T-shirt together like that for impeaching President Obama?" GOP rep. asks.

"This Administration doesn't care about the law (you know, the U.S. Constitution)," Tlaib said, "so it shouldn't surprise me so much that they don't care about our history or traditions."

But President Trump and his cronies are pitting fellow Americans against one another, sowing division that undermines everything we're supposed to stand for as a country.

President Donald Trump is dead wrong to stand in the way of a congressional delegation.

The president doesn't understand that Jewish support for the Democrats has nothing to do with Israel. It has to do with the question of anti-Semitism and inclusiveness.

"The Jewish community is less safe than it was three years ago," Ron Klein asserted.

"It is not mearly [sic] an antisemitic dog whistle — it's a bullhorn to his white nationalist base," the progressive Jewish-American group IfNotNow told Newsweek in a statement.

"Denying a visit to duly elected members of Congress is not consistent with being an ally and denying millions of people freedom of movement or expression or self-determination is not consistent with being a democracy."

The Muslim congresswomen have been condemned in the past for making anti-Semitic tropes and supporting a boycott movement against Israel.

The World Jewish Congress' President Ronald Lauder on Sunday compared Tlaib's suggestion to boycott Maher to Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany.

Their joint effort to ban U.S. congresswomen from visiting the West Bank aligns the U.S. and Israel with the global authoritarian right.

"Who wouldn't be proud of a granddaughter like that? I love her and am so proud of her," Tlaib's grandmother told The Washington Post.
