The leaders of a new House committee on China have condemned GOP Rep. Gooden of Texas for his questioning of Rep. Judy Chu’s loyalty to the U.S.
“One of my colleagues, unfortunately, attacked Judy Chu, the first Chinese American congresswoman in the United States Congress, saying that somehow she’s not loyal to the United States. I find that offensive as an Asian American myself,” Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, the ranking Democrat on the panel, said in response to Gooden’s comments during an interview on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”
“We should not question anybody’s loyalty to the United States. I think that is out of bounds. It’s beyond the pale,” Gallagher said. Gooden told Fox News that he thinks Chu “needs to be called out” and that he questioned her “loyalty or competence.”
