Summary
House Democratic leaders hoped to end the first major internal fight of their new majority by going ahead with a vote Thursday on a resolution “opposing hate,” with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi saying they needed to "remove all doubt" after comments made by freshman Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar. Pelosi said Democrats would craft a resolution to bring to the floor “that will again speak out against anti-Semitism, anti-Islamophobia, anti-white supremacy and all the forms that it takes – that our country has no place for this.”
