Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin Doctored Resume to Hide Work with Pro-Palestinian Organization

Democratic Rep. Elissa Slotkin (MI-08) has a discrepancy on her resume. On an older version, Slotkin lists working for a pro-Palestinian group, whereas her current resume lists her working for an Israeli organization during the same time period. As the Washington Free Beacon details:

“When the Michigan Democrat was being considered for assistant secretary of state in 2012, a resume she submitted as part of her application claimed that circa 2000-2001 she had served as a grant writer for the Follow-Up Committee on Arab Education (FUCAE). That group’s website says it ‘is a professional body representing the Palestinian minority in Israel in all matters related to education.’”

“However, her current work history on her LinkedIn profile for the same time period does not reference FUCAE, and instead says she worked as a grant writer for Isha L’Isha (Women to Women), which describes itself as ‘the oldest grassroots feminist organization in Israel and one of the leading voices of women’s rights in the country.’”

Elissa Slotkin downplayed her work with FUCAE, an organization whose manifesto calls for the end of Israel as a Jewish state.
