The state senate in Texas passed what’s being called as an anti “Sharia law” bill. The left claims it’s Islamophobic. The right says it plainly states that no laws from any “foreign courts” will be applied judges.
Senator Campbell stated: “It’s just to provide some belt and suspenders to make sure that, with judicial discretion, we don’t trump Texas law, American law, with a foreign law regarding family law.”Not all in the senate is pleased with Campbell’s bill though. Democratic Senator Kirk Watson stated, “What foreign law are you attempting to prevent being used, and can you give examples of where it has created a problem in the state?”Campbell said, “No foreign law. This just provides a context for judicial discretion.”
The bill is on it’s way to the Governor. Do you think the bill is necessary?
