U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, a notorious anti-Semite, has announced her intention to seek a third term representing Minnesota�s Fifth District.

Omar was first elected to the House in 2019 and was the first Somali American in Congress. She said in a news release Monday that she chose to run to “help build a better world by addressing a host of issues including economic and income inequality and climate change”.

�When I first ran for this office there was one thing I kept coming back to. Something I said to myself and to the voters over and over: I believe that a better world is possible,� she said. �I still believe that.�

Her first term generated widespread attention when she launched her 2020 re-election campaign with the slogan �Send her back to Congress!� � a riff on comments made by then-president Donald Trump that Omar and three other congresswomen of color should �go back� to their countries.

�I still believe in a world where we choose peace over war, diplomacy over bellicosity, and the human rights of all people over the profits of the military-industrial complex. A world where we put human rights at the center of U.S. foreign policy, oppose war and militarism and pursue accountability for human rights abuses wherever they occur,� she said in the release. �If you believe a better world is possible, join me.�

Omar has passed eight bills and amendments into law, introduced more than 100 bills and amendments and co-sponsored nearly 1,100, according to the release.
