The vote is another sign of the Democratic Party\u2019s leftward lurch and embrace of socialism. In past years, a vote of this nature would have handily passed the House with support from every member of both parties.<\/p>\n<p>Those voting against the measure included members of the &#8220;Squad&#8221; and other left-wing House members who are known for backing socialism and pushing an anti-Israel agenda. This includes Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.), Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.), Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.), Jamaal Bowman (D., N.Y.), and Cori Bush (D., Mo.), among others.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Democrats 40 House Democrats, including the &#8216;Squad,&#8217; reject measure backing Cuban people\u2019s pursuit of freedom  Reps.
