DEMS TORN ON RESOLUTION CONDEMNING OMAR: Infighting among House Democrats could delay consideration of a resolution condemning anti-Semitism in the wake of controversial comments made by freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., a senior source told Fox News ... There is internal consternation among Democrats about the text of the resolution and whether Omar will be mentioned by name. The latest text circulated in the House does not mention Omar. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer condemned Omar's latest remarks on Israel as "wrong and hurtful." House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot Engel, D-N.Y., said he was not poised to punish Omar.
Fox News is told the fighting could jeopardize bringing up the measure this week because there’s a risk it might not pass. Lawmakers had planned to present it on Wednesday.
