Original: DOJ seized Rep. Omar's phone, subpoenaed family members in immigration status investigation
The Justice Department has seized Representative Ilhan Omar's phone and issued subpoenas to members of her family as part of an investigation into her immigration status, according to NBC News. The Minnesota Democrat, who came to the United States as a refugee from Somalia, has faced repeated scrutiny from political opponents over her naturalization and asylum claims. The reported seizure and subpoenas mark a significant escalation in that long-running dispute.
Why now: A federal investigation touching a sitting congresswoman and her family is an unusual and politically charged development drawing wide attention.
