To absolutely no one’s surprise, Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN-5) is under fire once again for comparing America to the Taliban and Hamas. Yes, you read that correctly. A sitting Member of Congress literally put the greatest country in the world, America, and the only democracy in the Middle East, Israel,

The ACLJ has just settled an important case with an agreement that immediately affects Jewish students at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and can hopefully set a precedent for other universities to follow. Last January we filed a federal complaint on behalf of our client, Hillels of Georgia,
