Rep. Omar’s Statement on U.S. Involvement in Yemen

February 2, 2022

WASHINGTON—Today, Rep. Ilhan Omar released the following statement after the Biden Administration announced continued military involvement in Yemen.

"It's shameful this Administration is continuing our involvement in the Yemen conflict with military assistance. Nearly a year ago, President Biden promised to end our involvement in Yemen. This is a dereliction of what this Administration campaigned on, and out of step with a foreign policy agenda rooted in human rights and peace. The Administration must follow through on their promise and work to end our involvement in the war once and for all."
