(Free Beacon) Rep. Summer Lee’s (D., Pa.) primary opponent called on the “Squad” member to refund campaign contributions from Muslim activists known for pro-terrorist and anti-Semitic rhetoric.
Bhavini Patel, Lee’s primary challenger in Pennsylvania’s 12th district, called on her to return “tainted” contributions from officials with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Students for Justice in Palestine, and American Muslims for Palestine. CAIR [executive director] Nihad Awad donated to Lee’s campaign on Dec. 29, weeks after the White House denounced him for saying he was “happy” to see Hamas attack Israel, the Washington Free Beacon reported.
“Summer Lee must immediately follow President Biden’s lead and distance herself from these hateful, dangerous individuals by returning their tainted contributions,” Patel, who serves on the Pennsylvania Medical Marijuana Advisory Board and was a Biden delegate in 2020, said in a statement.
