Excerpt:
Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chair Ken Martin withdrew his Israel-Gaza resolution from consideration after the members punted on a more extreme resolution.
The Democrats are in disarray.
Martin’s resolution demanded the release of all hostages, a two-state solution, and a ceasefire.
So today, I introduced a resolution, resolution three, which was focused on finding common ground in our party on a very heartbreaking humanitarian issue, and it’s aligned with our party platform. This crisis in Gaza is urgent, and my resolution is focused on that humanitarian crisis, and makes it clear that it must be addressed as the emergency that it is.
Now I know that there are some who are interested in making changes today, but as we’ve seen, there’s divide in our party on this issue.
This is a moment that calls for shared dialogue. It calls for shared advocacy, and that’s why I’ve decided today, at this moment, listening to the testimony and listening to people in our party, to withdraw my amendment and resolution to allow us to move forward on a conversation on this as a party.
The DNC Chair just caved to the antisemites in the Democrat Party.
This is who they are. https://t.co/niXxTpBBzu
