Mubarak has drawn scrutiny in the past for her ties to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 2009 Holy Land Foundation terror-financing case. She is also linked to the Alliance for Global Justice, which has faced investigations for alleged connections to Samidoun, a group affiliated with the PFLP.
The briefing also highlights Tlaib’s appearances alongside controversial figures. It cites her participation at a conference with Wisam Rafeedie, a convicted PFLP operative who later defended the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attacks as “resistance.”
“Through public endorsement, co-sponsorship, and amplification, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib has consistently engaged with a range of organizations known to maintain operational or ideological ties to terrorist networks,” the report states. “Tlaib has engaged with and disseminated the messaging of these groups and has shared related content on social media platforms, has participated in events organized by these groups, and has referenced their terminology and conceptual frameworks in official congressional communications.”
Tlaib is no stranger to accusations of this nature. The House has taken formal action against her on two separate occasions in recent years. She was censured in November 2023 for allegedly promoting false narratives about the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks. A separate resolution was introduced in September 2025 following her appearance at the “People’s Conference for Palestine,” where speakers were accused of “whitewashing” convicted Hamas financiers.
The briefing also singles out Tlaib’s rhetoric, claiming she has repeatedly invoked antisemitic “tropes.” One example highlighted is an August 2021 event where she referred to “people behind the curtain” profiting from “racism” from “Gaza to Detroit.”
Beyond raising concerns, the report calls for tangible action. It recommends a formal congressional investigation into Tlaib’s conduct, including a review of statements that allegedly align with terrorist groups, her participation in events honoring convicted terrorists, and a thorough examination of her campaign finances.
The briefing also urges the Justice Department’s National Security Division to assess whether Tlaib or her associates violated 18 U.S. Code §2339B, which prohibits providing material support to foreign terrorist organizations.
Additionally, it calls on the Federal Election Commission to conduct a forensic audit of Tlaib’s campaign finances, with particular scrutiny on donors allegedly tied to terrorist networks.
“Tlaib’s conduct demonstrates how extremist ideologies can infiltrate mainstream democratic institutions,” the report concludes. “If left unchecked, her actions will continue to legitimize hate.”
