H.Res. 713 · Congress

Censuring Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and removing her from the Committee on Education and Workforce and the Committee on the Budget.

Introduced Sep 15, 2025 · Motion to reconsider laid on the table Agreed to without objection.

What does this mean?

This resolution officially reprimands Representative Ilhan Omar through a formal vote of disapproval by her fellow House members — a public rebuke that goes on the record but carries no fine, jail time, or removal from Congress itself. It also takes away her seats on two House committees: the Education and Workforce Committee, which shapes laws on schools, student loans, and labor issues, and the Budget Committee, which helps draft the federal government's overall spending plan. In practice, this means Omar keeps her job as a member of Congress representing her Minnesota district, but she loses her direct role in shaping legislation in those two specific policy areas.
