Dear Harold,
Recently we reported that four local political party conventions in two different states passed resolutions opposing shariah law. ACT! for America members played key roles in this unprecedented action.
Now we learn that the Oklahoma House of Representatives has advanced another unprecedented resolution! (See story below.)
When Brigitte Gabriel and I speak to groups around the country, we are often asked, “Can we really stop the advance of radical Islam in America?”
Here’s the answer—we are stopping the advance of radical Islam in America. Step by step. Every success, no matter the size, is another step toward ultimate victory.
Join us at our National Conference and Legislative Briefing in Washington June 27 – 29 to see just how far we have come! Featured speakers:
- Brigitte Gabriel

Oklahoma House Advances Legislation Banning Sharia Law...

OKLAHOMA CITY – State lawmakers have voted to allow Oklahoma voters to prevent judicial rulings in foreign countries from impacting local court decisions through approval of the "Save Our State" constitutional amendment.
House Joint Resolution 1056, by state Rep. Rex Duncan, would allow Oklahomans to vote to amend the Oklahoma Constitution to require the courts to "uphold and adhere to the law" as provided in the United States Constitution, the Oklahoma Constitution, the United States Code and federal regulations, Oklahoma Statutes and rules, and established common law.
The proposed amendment would prohibit all Oklahoma courts from considering the legal precepts of other nations or cultures, even in cases of first impression.
"Unfortunately, some judges in other states and on the federal bench have begun to cite international law in their court decisions, effectively undermining our own democratic system of government," said Duncan, a Sand Springs Republican and attorney who chairs the House Judiciary Committee. "Our nation’s laws were developed through a democratic process and should not be undermined by haphazard reliance on foreign rulings developed in autocratic societies. Oklahoma court decisions should be based on the U.S. Constitution, Oklahoma Constitution, and our state and national laws—period."
The proposed amendment declares that courts "shall not consider international law or Sharia Law." |
