The US Democratic congresswoman from Michigan said she will continue to fight for Congress to use its powers to limit Trump’s ability to support Israel’s “unjust invasion” of Lebanon, despite her resolution receiving support from less than a quarter of House members, Al Jazeera reports.
“I am grateful to the 90 members of Congress who joined me and my sister-in-service Delia Ramirez in voting to put an end to US support for these war crimes and mass atrocities,” Tlaib said in a statement.
Tlaib added that “far too many of my colleagues continue to fail to recognise the humanity of the Lebanese people”.
