Denouncing Sharia law in the United States.
This House concurrent resolution formally denounces Sharia law and opposes its implementation within the United States. The text argues that Sharia functions as a comprehensive political and legal system that conflicts with the U.S. Constitution, specifically citing differences in criminal justice, gender equality, and individual liberties. It references historical examples of Islamic governance and recent statements by President Trump to support the claim that foreign legal systems incompatible with American values should not be applied domestically. As a concurrent resolution, this measure serves as an official expression of congressional sentiment rather than creating new binding laws or regulations.
