GOP Congressmen Starting ‘Sharia Free America Caucus’ to Counter Islamic Law and Protect the Constitution

We needed this in the wake of  9/11 and we wouldn’t be here right now but better late than never. Let’s do this.

The photo above was taken at the Ground Zero mosque protest back in 2010. Many knew even then, and we were punished mercilessly for increasing awareness of it.

Leading the way are two Texas Republicans—Keith Self and Chip Roy who have launched the “Sharia Free America Caucus,” a new House bloc aimed at opposing the spread of Islamic law in the United States, which is fundamentally incompatible with the U.S. Constitution and Western values. The lawmakers say the caucus will focus on educating the public about what they view as the dangers of Sharia law, particularly amid mass migration and social unrest seen in parts of Europe. Backed by at least one Senate ally, Sen. Tommy Tuberville, the group hopes to push legislation barring foreign nationals who adhere to Sharia from entering the U.S. and formally designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. While largely symbolic for now, supporters say the caucus is a necessary response to growing security and cultural concerns they believe threaten America’s constitutional order.. It will be interesting to see who will “come out” to stand with them. Dmitri Bolt of Townhall: “Anytime you go to a fight, you bring as many friends with you as you can. I’m a military guy,” Rep. Self said. “So what we need to do is build this caucus now so that we can start educating the American people to the dangers of Sharia in the United States.” Sharia law, he added, is “fundamentally incompatible with the U.S. Constitution.” “America is facing a threat that directly attacks our Constitution and our Western values: the spread of Sharia law,” Rep. Roy said in a statement. “From Texas to every state in this constitutional republic, instances of Sharia adherents masquerading as ‘refugees’ — and in many cases, sleeper cells connected to terrorist organizations — are threatening the American way of life.” The new caucus already has some support from the Senate, from Senator Tommy Tuberville of Alabama, who told Rep. Self he would be happy to help push some of their legislative goals (Townhall).
