Republican Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna alleged Wednesday that a left-wing activist assaulted her by appearing to tap her arm.<\/p>\n

Footage of the incident showed Medea Benjamin, the co-founder of CODEPINK, sparring with Luna about foreign policy and lightly hitting her arm. Luna alleged she was smacked and said she would seek to ban Benjamin\u2019s organization from the Capitol.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter I questioned Secretary Rubio on Code Pink and their ties to the [Chinese Communist Party], their organization followed me out, berated me, and then their head person here in DC smacked me,\u201d Luna said. \u201cBtw these are not \u2018allegations.\u2019 It happened. My staff was there when it happened and wrote statements for LEO.\u201d (RELATED: Anna Paulina Luna Takes Swing At John Thune As GOP Factions Battle Over MAHA-Backed Pesticide Provision)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Luna\u2019s office declined to comment to the Daily Caller News Foundation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

During a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing Wednesday, Luna questioned Secretary of State Marco Rubio about CODEPINK\u2019s alleged foreign funding ties, particularly to Neville Roy Singham, an American millionaire living in China who is linked to left-wing causes. She alleged that Singham gave $1.3 million to CODEPINK and over $270 million to various nonprofits<\/span><\/span><\/span> since 2017. Rubio stated there is \u201cno doubt\u201d that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and other countries were funding left-wing causes in the U.S.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After the hearing, Benjamin followed Luna and claimed that Rubio was hurting the Cuban people. The left-wing activist then appeared to tap Luna\u2019s arm as she asked the congresswoman, \u201cwhen was the last time you were in Cuba?\u201d<\/p>\n

The congresswoman told TMZ that CODEPINK tried to block her from voting and that Benjamin \u201csmacked\u201d her.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI was literally walking to walk away from this person and they smacked me,\u201d Luna said. \u201cThey smacked my arm. I mean, look, either which way, you don\u2019t touch anyone, especially if you don\u2019t like what they\u2019re saying. You cannot physically harm someone, you can\u2019t hit them, you can\u2019t block people from being able to vote.\u201d<\/p>\n

Luna also called on House Speaker Mike Johnson to ban CODEPINK.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have asked the Speaker to ban Code Pink. I was just physically hit by their head organizer. This is right after I questioned Secretary Rubio about them. It is time Speaker Johnson ban them,\u201d Luna said in a separate statement.<\/p>\n

CODEPINK posted the video and claimed that nobody committed any violent act against Luna.<\/p>\n

\u201cNobody hit her,\u201d CODEPINK said. \u201cInstead of answering for the war crimes she supports, this AIPAC-funded congresswoman continues to lie about activists.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Florida congresswoman responded that CODEPINK \u201ccrossed a personal boundary\u201d and that they would be \u201cflipping out\u201d if she had laid a hand on her.<\/p>\n
