Ilhan Omar takes credit for a bill she voted against?

[iemanja]

I looked up the original op ed that Roxxane O'Brien wrote about Don Samuels, insisting he had no right to run. Evidently, O'Brien believes that Omar should not have to face a primary challenger.

Among the points that O'Brien raised in support of Omar was this:

This month, she successfully brought over $17 million home to the district — including funding for food entrepreneurship on the North Side, rebuilding on Lake Street, job training for green energy jobs and more.

Is this not the Infrastructure bill that Omar voted against?

1. Knives out for Omar!

What's the inside scoop? Please enlighten us!

2. I want to see someone else in her office

which is my right as a resident of MN-05. I want someone who votes for Democratic legislation.

Do you live in this district? If so, you can go ahead and vote for her. If not, you'll have to leave the election to those who do.

3. Well okay then

That pretty much sums it up.

4. Me, too.

Voting along with MTG and the other scum of the earth GOPers was the last straw for me, and I've given her a lot of straws.

5. Never voted for her

I just didn't vote on that office.
Any opinions on Samuels?

6. Here's an op ed in support of him

7. Not sure, but she's voted NAY most of the time

They show her to the far LEFT on many issues. Maybe she was wanting MORE of something and her challenges were not on bills in danger of not passing.

Not sure what is going on there.

8. Could she mean HR 6187

https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/116/hr6187 that was incorporated into:
H.R. 6201: Families First Coronavirus Response Act
Enacted — Signed by the President on Mar 18, 2020

9. No, this is in reference to the Infrastructure bill.
