Minnesota’s Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar mixed up holiday practices in a tweet Monday about Memorial Day causing a backlash on Twitter.
“On [Memorial Day], we honor the heroic men and women who served our country. We owe them more than our gratitude – they have more than earned access to quality mental health services, job opportunities, housing assistance, and the benefits they were promised,” the Minnesota Democrat tweeted. The Tweet appears to have been deleted. (RELATED: Ilhan Omar’s Daughter Isra Hirsi Allegedly Suspended From College For Anti-Israel Activity)
