Department of Justice Subpoenas Family Members of Representative Ilhan Omar
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
The Department of Justice issued nearly a dozen subpoenas on Friday as part of an investigation into Representative Ilhan Omar, including some directed at her family members, according to a source familiar with the investigation. The congresswoman herself was not subpoenaed, the source noted, adding that the requests for information are linked to a federal grand jury in Minnesota, Omar's state of residence. The investigation examines issues related to Omar's immigration status, including—though not limited to—her date of birth, the source indicated. Omar, who was born in Somalia and moved to the United States with her family in the 1990s, obtained citizenship through naturalization at the age of 17; being a minor at the time, she was able to acquire citizenship through one of her parents.
