Influence: The Muslim Brotherhood in America

Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act Gaining Supporters: Is Your Congressman on this List?

Eight more signatures have been added by Members of Congress to designate the Brotherhood as a terrorist organization, with the total number of supporters up to 76.

BY Bruce Cornibe · | June 1, 2016

The Muslim Brotherhood is a global Islamist organization with vast networks dedicated to overthrowing non-Islamic governments while instituting Sharia law. The Brotherhood’s motto gives an example of its mission: “Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. The Qur’an is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.” The Brotherhood is already banned in countries such as the U.A.E., Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Russia among others. With such a clear threat to the U.S. Constitution and the American way of life it is imperative for the passing of the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act of 2015.

Eight more signatures have been added in recent months by Members of Congress (two Senators, six representatives) to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization, taking the total number of supporters up to seventy-six. It is enjoying not only bipartisan support in Congress but also support from organizations representing persecuted Christians (the Assyrian Genocide and Research Center, the American Mesopotamian Organization, Coptic Solidarity, and the Middle East Christian Committee), since they know personally how dangerous the Muslim Brotherhood is to freedom and security.

The bill already passed the House Judiciary Committee, and needs to be voted on in the House of Representatives and accepted by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. This is a key opportunity to inform our members of Congress about the Muslim Brotherhood’s participation in terrorism and its connection to Islamist organizations such as the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT), the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) among others who have a considerable influence in American public policy.
