Many citizens of the United States appear set to not live in denial anymore and watch their way of life replaced by foreign religious ideologies they say trample on the freedom their forefathers fought for, leading to their independence in 1776.

Barely a week after Governor Ron DeSantis of the state of Florida signed the HB 1471 law, a legislation aimed at prohibiting the application of foreign or religious laws, including Sharia Law, within Florida courts, US Congressman Barry Moore, has proposed the “CRUSADE Act” (Civilians Resisting Unlawful Strikes Against Divine Establishments Act).

The bill seeks to require immigrant religious workers to formally renounce Sharia law and pledge allegiance to the US Constitution, a move aimed at protecting American constitutional values against foreign doctrines.

The key details of the proposed legislation include: renouncing of Sharia Law by immigrants seeking entry into the US as religious workers, and affirming their commitment to the US Constitution.

Announcing the introduction of the proposed law on X, Moore explained that, “Sharia Law justifies the persecution of religious minorities, restrictions on women and the elevation of religious law above all.”

He explained further, “Immigrants entering our nation as religious workers should disavow Sharia and uphold the Constitution.”

Sharia Law is a set of practices and principles derived from the Islamic religion and enforced in Muslim-majority countries and communities. According to Congressman Moore, some of the practices conflict with U.S. Constitution and values.

As did the HB 1471 bill in Florida, the “CRUSADE Act” has also generated controversy. While supporters of the bill say it would protect national security, critics argue that it violates religious freedom and the targeting of specific communities.
