The Orlando Sentinel reports that Florida Republicans are calling for stripping voucher funding from Islamic schools while defending billions in public money for Christian ones. AG Uthmeier calls it a national security threat. There are roughly 24 Islamic schools in a program serving 2,278 campuses.
Retired Colonel Steve Gabavics, who led the U.S. military investigation into the 2022 killing of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, has told The New York Times that he and his team concluded an Israeli sniper deliberately shot her knowing she was a journalist — findings that a senior general allegedly disregarded and that the Biden administration’s public statement covered up. United Voices is calling for a real investigation and criminal charges.
Rep. Hillary Cassel’s own statement on her anti-Shari’a bill makes the motivation explicit: ‘solidarity with Israel and the Jewish people.’ The party-switching lawmaker filed the bill on October 7. The sole Democratic co-sponsor is also Jewish and pro-Israel.
United Voices is demanding the Department of Homeland Security immediately lift its funding freeze on security grants to American Muslim nonprofits — a freeze reportedly driven by a discredited report from a pro-Israel, anti-Muslim organization founded by Daniel Pipes — while mosques and houses of worship face a documented rise in violent threats.
Florida Rep. Hillary Cassel, who switched from Democrat to Republican last year over Israel, has filed the ‘No Shari’a Act’ to ban Islamic law from state courts. She timed the filing to October 7 and refused to answer reporters’ questions. There is no documented case of Shari’a law being applied in any Florida court.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has ordered all remaining Palestinians to leave Gaza City, declaring that anyone who stays will be considered a “terrorist” — and therefore approved for killing, including civilians. With 400,000 already forcibly displaced and hundreds of thousands unable to flee, the declaration amounts to a death sentence for an entire civilian population.
Rep. Brian Mast has withdrawn Section 226 of H.R. 5300 — the provision that would have given Secretary of State Marco Rubio unilateral authority to revoke U.S. passports with no conviction, no charge, and no meaningful court oversight. United Voices is calling it a victory for organized advocacy, while documenting the broader pattern of ‘Israel First’ legislation that has been defeated through public pressure this year.
Hillary Cassel Switched Parties Over Israel. Now She’s Leading Florida’s Anti-Muslim Legislative Push
Hillary Cassel switched from Democrat to Republican over Israel. Within months, she filed Florida’s anti-Shari’a bill on the October 7 anniversary. The sole Democratic co-sponsor is also Jewish and pro-Israel. Critics say the bill amounts to collective punishment of Florida’s Muslim community.
