Comer Threatens to Sue Group Funding Illegal Anti-Israel Protests

Rep. James Comer (R-KY) threatened to sue an anti-Israel group accused of funding anti-Israel campus occupations over the spring.

A press release from the House Committee on Oversight stated that American Muslims for Palestine indicated it will not accept a May 29 letter from Comer, which requested various funding documents and communications with National SJP.

According to the May 29 letter, National Students for Justice in Palestine “is founded and controlled by American Muslims for Palestine,” which has “substantial ties to Hamas via its financial sponsor, Americans for Justice in Palestine Educational Foundation.”

”The Committee is particularly concerned that organizations promulgating pro-Hamas propaganda and engaging in illegal activities at institutions of higher education might be receiving funding or other support from foreign or domestic sources which support the aims of Hamas or other foreign terrorist organizations,” Comer wrote.
