Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib said Sunday that she believes Islamophobia "is still very present on both sides of the aisle" in Congress.
The remark from Tlaib, who represents Michigan, came as she was discussing criticism aimed at Rep. Ilhan Omar, who, along with Tlaib, serves as one of two Muslim women in Congress. Omar faced scrutiny in February and March for controversial comments she made about Israel. In the wake of her comments, the Minnesota Democrat also became the subject of death threats.
"I pause and think to myself 'is it because she's a black American and she's Muslim?' And so that's where I pause and say to myself, 'Is there an issue here?' And I guess our mere presence there.
The fact that now there's not only one but now three Muslim Americans serving in Congress," Tlaib said to CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."
Rep. Andre Carson, an Indiana Democrat who has served in Congress since 2008, also identifies as Muslim.

Tlaib is a Justice Democrat (Cenk Uygur).
