House Ethics Complaint Seeks Immigration, Tax Fraud Probe of Rep. Ilhan Omar

Epoch Times:

WASHINGTON—Judicial Watch filed an ethics complaint on July 23 asking for an investigation into allegations of multiple crimes committed by Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) tied to a 2009 marriage to her own brother.

In a hand-delivered letter, the nonprofit government watchdog told the chairman of the House Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE), David Skaggs, that there is “substantial, compelling and, to date, un-refuted evidence” that the Minnesota Democrat may have committed “immigration fraud, marriage fraud, perjurious statements on her Minnesota divorce filings, and falsifications on her tax returns.”

Skaggs was appointed by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Mass.) as chairman of the OCE board of directors. Alison Hayward, attorney and former George Mason University law professor, was appointed vice chairman by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.).

Omar is a Somali refugee who fled with her family from her war-torn country to the United States in 1992 and was granted asylum in 1995. She became a U.S. citizen in 2000, was elected to the Minnesota legislature in 2016, and then elected to Congress in 2018.

Omar is one of the four radical Democrats known as “The Squad,” which also includes Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), and Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.). They have clashed repeatedly with Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and President Donald Trump.

Earlier this year, Omar was ordered by Minnesota state election officials to pay a fine of $500 and reimburse her campaign committee for $3,469 in illegal expenditures in 2016 and 2017, including a $1,500 payment to a law firm that assisted her in responding to some of the allegations now raised by Judicial Watch.
