The Looming Threat of Political Islam in Texas
Concerns about the Islamification of Texas and Sharia law courts, which are incompatible with our Constitutional Republic, have become the number one issue for many Texans.
Political Islam is no longer creeping into our communities - it’s marching across our great state.
Eagle Forum’s National Security Issues Chairman, MerryLynn Gerstenschlager, will share:
➡️ The definition of “political” Islam
➡️ A review of bills related to Islam this past Regular Session
➡️ How Texas is being “Islamized”
➡️ Status of the Turkish-run Harmony charter schools and what Islamic private schools teach their children
➡️ How to know how many mosques exist in Texas
➡️ How to keep pushing our elected representatives to take action
The hour is late - it’s time to get informed so we can defend our communities, Texas, and the USA!
