民主党籍联邦众议员伊尔汗·奥马尔庆祝阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德当选美国联邦参议员，指出他的胜利将使在国会任职的穆斯林人数增至八人。这标志着穆斯林美国人政治代表性的一个里程碑。
Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar celebrated the election of Abdul El-Sayed to the US Senate, noting that his win would bring the number of Muslims serving in Congress to eight. This marks a milestone for Muslim American political representation.“Congratulations, Abdul El-Sayed,” Omar wrote on X. “You turned that inshallah into alhamdulillah.”
“恭喜，阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德，”奥马尔在X平台上写道。“你把‘因沙阿拉’变成了‘赞颂真主’。”她补充道：“得知我们现在将有8名穆斯林在国会任职，我感激万分。他们曾告诉我们，我们发不出声、无法挑战现状、也走不到这一步。但我们做到了。赞颂真主。”
She added, “I am overwhelmed with gratitude knowing that we will now have 8 Muslims serving in Congress. They told us we couldn't speak up, couldn't challenge the status quo, and couldn't make it this far. But we did. Alhamdulillah.”
改变国会格局的竞选：导致特朗普共和党失去众参两院控制权的关键角逐在2026年中期选举中，穆斯林候选人在多个国会选区获胜，其中包括埃尔-赛义德的参议员胜选。这八人团体由一名参议员和七名众议员组成。

奥马尔自2019年起代表该选区。该选区涵盖明尼阿波利斯市及其内环郊区，是该州乃至全美最倾向民主党的选区。

奥马尔在8月的初选中以压倒性优势击败朱莉·T·勒、阿贝纳·麦肯齐、拉托尼亚·里夫斯和内特·施吕特。明尼苏达州民主-农民-劳工党（DFL）在5月的州代表大会上背书支持她。

近期联邦调查局搜查了她在华盛顿的住所，此后奥马尔面临更多的法律和政治审视。

汤姆·霍曼此前表示，联邦政府已构建了“一个有力的案件”，这可能导致特朗普政府寻求撤销奥马尔的归化公民身份。这位女众议员自1995年其家人从索马里移民美国以来，一直居住在美国。
Tom Homan previously said that the feds have built “a strong case” that could result in the Trump administration seeking to denaturalize Omar. The congresswoman has lived in the US since her family emigrated from Somalia in 1995.
