Ilhan Omar takes credit for a bill she voted against? [View all]

I looked up the original op ed that Roxxane O'Brien wrote about Don Samuels, insisting he had no right to run. Evidently, O'Brien believes that Omar should not have to face a primary challenger.

Among the points that O'Brien raised in support of Omar was this:

This month, she successfully brought over $17 million home to the district — including funding for food entrepreneurship on the North Side, rebuilding on Lake Street, job training for green energy jobs and more.

Is this not the Infrastructure bill that Omar voted against?
