Rashida Tlaib wears keffiyeh, hosts family member of Gaza victims during Netanyahu visit

Rashida Tlaib, the only Palestinian American member of Congress, wore a Palestinian flag pin and keffiyeh on Wednesday, as part of her boycott of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit.

Tlaib posted a photo on X, alongside Hani Almadhoun from the Gaza Strip.

“Joining me in the chamber today is Hani Almadhoun, who has lost over 150 members of his extended family in Netanyahu’s genocide. After witnessing his sister forced to eat animal feed, he and his family were determined to start a soup kitchen to feed their starving neighbours,” she said.
