Muslim American groups say Republicans are weaponizing congressional hearings

WASHINGTON: Muslim American groups said congressional ​hearings that Republican lawmakers cast as aimed at making the US “sharia-free” are being weaponized against Muslim minorities in the United States by stoking fear against them. Republicans, who hold a majority in both chambers of Congress, titled a Wednesday hearing by a House Judiciary Subcommittee as “Sharia-Free America: Why Political Islam and Sharia Law are Incompatible with the US Constitution.” A similar hearing was also held in February.
