JERUSALEM (AP) — The traditional brightly embroidered dress of Palestinian women known as the "thobe" was not the type of garment one would expect to become a pop political symbol.

Now it's gaining prominence as a softer expression of Palestinian nationalism, competing even with the classic keffiyeh — the headscarf donned by young stone-throwing Palestinian men protesting Israel's occupation.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar has relished the attention attached to becoming one of the first two Muslim women elected to Congress, eagerly engaging with supporters and critics on social media.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Since winning a closely watched election in New Mexico three months ago, U.S. Rep. Xochitl Torres Small hasn't garnered the same amount of attention as other freshmen in Congress.

The Las Cruces Democrat isn't followed around the Capitol by herds of reporters like Democratic U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York. She's rarely in magazine photo shoots, like U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley of Boston or Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, also Democrats.

WASHINGTON (AP) — In a story Jan. 28 about freshmen Democrats appointed to the House Oversight Committee, The Associated Press reported erroneously that Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., had worked as a prosecutor. She is not an attorney. Before coming to Congress, she served on the Boston City Council.

A corrected version of the story is below:

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Commissioners in a South Florida city are reprimanding a fellow councilmember over remarks on a Facebook post about the first Palestinian-American woman elected to the U.S. Congress.

Hallandale Beach commissioners voted Wednesday to condemn Commissioner Anabelle Lima-Taub for writing that U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, a Democrat from Detroit, might become "a martyr and blow up Capitol Hill." Tlaib is one of two Muslim women elected to Congress in November.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The education of the star-studded class of House freshmen has begun.

Lesson one: Speaking with the bluntness of a candidate can produce swift and uncomfortable results.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib learned that before lunch Friday, when her profane remarks the night before vowing to impeach President Donald Trump drew almost no support, and plenty of pushback, from members of her party.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on President Donald Trump and calls by some Democrats to impeach him (all times local):

2:48 p.m.

President Donald Trump says newly elected Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan "dishonored herself" when she used profanity to describe him.

Speaking to reporters in the Rose Garden, Trump said Friday that he thought Tlaib's comments were "disgraceful."

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had only been in office for a few hours when a handful of Democrats defied her persistent calls not to begin the new Congress by talking about impeachment.

WASHINGTON (AP) — They "dabbed" on the House floor. One tiny voice from somewhere deep in Democratic ranks yelled, "Boring!" And when their parents swore to faithfully serve as members of the new 116th Congress, many of them raised their little hands, too.

A roundup of some of the most popular but completely untrue stories and visuals of the week. None of these is legit, even though they were shared widely on social media. The Associated Press checked these out. Here are the real facts:

THE CLAIM: "Three Muslim congresswomen just refused" to sign the oath of office to uphold the U.S. Constitution.

DETROIT (AP) — Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones has been sworn in to fill Michigan's 13th District House seat, but will only serve in Congress for a few weeks.

Jones was given the oath of office Thursday after leaders in the House reached a deal on seating her while she keeps her job in Detroit. Jones will not take a city salary or conduct Detroit city business while a member of Congress.

NEW YORK (AP) — In a history-making election, plenty of new and unexpected faces — many of them black and brown, many of them female — will now be taking their first steps into their congressional futures.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Fresh off of becoming the first Somali-American elected to Congress, Ilhan Omar said Wednesday that she's still enjoying being known for her firsts.

DETROIT (AP) — Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones is making another push for the two-year 13th U.S. House District seat.

Michigan Secretary of State spokesman Fred Woodhams said Monday that the Wayne County Clerk's Office has confirmed that Jones filed to run in the Nov. 6 general election as a write-in candidate.

DETROIT (AP) — A U.S. House candidate was arrested Tuesday in Detroit during a protest for higher pay and the right to form unions.

Democrat Rashida Tlaib and more than a dozen other demonstrators sat at — and banged on — a long table that took up a lane of traffic in Detroit's Midtown. They were part of a group of several hundred people who marched along the street before gathering outside a McDonalds. Management inside locked the doors as marchers approached.
