Original Note:
The Speaker does not have the power to remove a member from a standing committee. Foreign Affairs is a standing committee. Each party has their own rules and procedures for assigning committee roles. Only a majority vote by the entire house could remove Rep. Omar. https://www.legbranch.org/2018-8-15-removing-house-members-from-standing-committees/ https://cha.house.gov/member-services/house-rules https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GPO-HPREC-DESCHLERS-V1/pdf/GPO-HPREC-DESCHLERS-V1-3-3-8.pdf
