Abbott designates Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR as foreign terrorist organizations in Texas

Texas bans the Muslim Brotherhood and Council on American-Islamic Relations from land ownership, citing terrorism support and authorizing enforcement and lawsuits under new state law.

  • Governor Abbott designated the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR as foreign terrorist organizations and transnational criminal organizations in Texas, alleging they pose a threat to the state's security and residents.
  • CAIR, a civil rights organization, called the designation "defamatory" and said it opposes all forms of unjust violence, stating that Abbott is "advancing anti-Muslim bigotry."
  • The proclamation cites reasons such as CAIR being founded as a "front group" for Hamas and its alleged goal of imposing Sharia law, while CAIR denies these claims and vows to sue if the designation becomes policy.
