‘This is big’: Congressman proposes plan to deport those who follow Islam’s Shariah law
‘The preservation of our constitutional republic and its people depend on it’
Calling the ideology of violence that permeates Islamic Shariah beliefs and law “incompatible” with American society, U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, has suggested a plan that would allow individuals who pursue that extremism to be deported.
And it would prevent foreign nationals who follow Shariah from entering the U.S.
A report at the Federalist explained the plan called, “Preserving A Shariah-Free America Act.”
“Any alien in the United States found to be an adherent of Shariah law by the Secretary of State, Secretary of Homeland Security, or Attorney General shall have any immigration benefit, immigration relief, or visa revoked, be considered inadmissible or deportable, and shall be removed from the United States,” explains Roy’s plan.
Under the proposal, immigration benefits could be revoked for those found among those supporting Islamic religious law, which includes vicious punishments for offenses such as when women appear in public without their Islam-mandated head and face coverings.
“Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any determination made by the aforementioned Department heads under this Act shall be final and shall not be subject to review by any court,” the law would require,
Roy told the Federalist, “America is facing an existential threat — the spread of Shariah Law. From Texas to every state in the union, instances of Shariah Law adherents have threatened the American way of life, seeking to replace our legal system and Constitution with an incompatible ideology that diminishes the rights of women, children, and individuals of different faiths.”
He added, “America’s immigration system must be fortified to counter the importation of Shariah adherents — the preservation of our constitutional republic and its people depend on it.”
The plan comes just as Hamas terrorists were releasing, under President Donald Trump’s brokered peace agreement, hostages they had taken during an act of war against Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. That’s when terrorists invaded and slaughter some 1,200 Israelis and took hundreds hostage.
Despite those atrocities, some Hamas elements said the violence was not enough.
“We did not act enough! We did not act enough. Repeat after me, ‘We did not act enough.’ If we acted enough, the headline behind me would read, ‘Gaza has been liberated,'” yelled one terrorist sympathizer at a protest on the second anniversary of the attack. “So our work is not done. We will show up, stronger than we did the first Oct. 7. Louder than we did the first Oct. 7 to make it clear that we are not going anywhere.”
Shariah adherents routinely chant “Death to America” as their slogan.
