Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) visited an “Uncommitted” movement sit-in on Wednesday during the Democratic National Convention in Chicago and expressed her solidarity with participants, going as far as “sharing a tearful hug with the sit-in organizer,” according to Minneapolis radio station WCCO.

Omar, a member of the progressive “Squad” in the House, has long targeted U.S. support for Israel. Rep. Summer Lee (D-Pa.), another “Squad” member, also attended the sit-in, which took place inside the DNC’s security perimeter.

Longtime host of the independent news program “Democracy Now!” Amy Goodman interviewed Omar at the protest, which questioned why no Palestinian representation was invited onto the DNC dais. Omar told Goodman that she had put in requests for a Palestinian speaker to the Harris-Walz campaign and the DNC.
