Top Democrat on House Foreign Affairs Committee Opposes Pro-Palestinian Trip
(Al-Monitor) Bryant Harris - House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.) told Al-Monitor this week that he opposes a proposed congressional delegation visit to the West Bank organized by Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.). "Instead of her talking about things, she's new here, she ought to listen and learn and open her mind," said Engel. "If you're going to be close-minded and have your views, no one's going to change her views. But I would hope that once you're elected to Congress, you would at least care to see the other side."
