US House censures lone Palestinian-American lawmaker over Israel comments

Twenty-two Democrats joined with most Republicans in the chamber to censure Rashida Tlaib.

Democratic representative Rashida Tlaib allegedly called for the destruction of the state of Israel.

The motion was sponsored by Republican representative Richard McCormick. The final vote tally in the Republican-controlled chamber was 234-188 in favor of censure. Four Republicans voted against the motion, while three Democrats and one Republican abstained.
