Chen, a Democrat running against the freshman Republican congresswoman, attacked Steel over her accent while speaking at an April 7 meet and greet in a synagogue.
California Republican Rep. Michelle Steel’s campaign condemned Democratic opponent Jay Chen over "racist" comments he made that appeared to mock the Korean-American congresswoman's accent.

House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy of California called on the House Democrats' national campaign arm to pull Chen from their "Red to Blue" program "in light of his racist attack" on Steel.
