House Republicans were not unified on anti-hatred vote, including the third-ranking Republican, Rep. Liz Cheney
1 / 4House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., does a tv news interview just outside the House chamber to discuss her reason for voting against the Democratic resolution condemning anti-Semitism that was sparked by controversial remarks from freshman Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, at the Capitol in Washington, Friday, March 8, 2019. Cheney, the No. 3 House Republican, called the resolution"a sham" by Democrats to avoid condemning Rep.
Wyoming GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, the third-ranking House Republican, broke with other top party leaders. She called the resolution — crafted after Rep. Ilhan Omar's controversial comments —"a sham put forward by Democrats to avoid condemning one of their own and denouncing vile anti-Semitism." "We're stronger when we all vote together. But everybody has their own voting card," McCarthy said Friday.
"No, now we can't come here and just emphatically, solely, forcefully condemn anti-Semitism and name names. But if it was a Republican, we would," Zeldin said."It is time to call out these statements for what they are: pointed, bigoted, unreasonable, illegitimate, anti-Semitic."
