Dossier Legislative introduced 19-sep-2025
Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

No Shari’a Act

Key claim: The No Shari’a Act (HR5512, 119th Congress) was introduced and referred to the House Judiciary Committee on 2025-09-19.

Abstract

(HR5512 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2025-09-19): Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.

Why this matters

Legislation restricting the application of foreign or religious legal norms in U.S. courts implicates religious liberty, equal protection, and due-process concerns, particularly for Muslim Americans whose civil, family, and contractual arrangements can incorporate religious principles. As an introduced bill without committee action, its practical effect is currently nil, but it signals continued legislative interest in constraining recognition of religious law in domestic proceedings.
