Earlier this week, Congressman Chip Roy (R-TX) introduced the Inhibiting Militant Adversarial Mullahs (IMAM) Act, decisive legislation designed to protect American sovereignty and security. As co-chair of the Sharia Free America Caucus, Rep. Roy has once again demonstrated the strong leadership America needs. The bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to deny nonimmigrant religious worker visas to foreign Imams, Shaykhs, Muftis, Ayatollahs, and other Islamic religious leaders who promote Sharia Law, political Islam, anti-American hatred, or ideologies hostile to our Constitution and Western civilization.
This measure is urgently necessary because for years, adversarial clerics have exploited loopholes in our visa system to enter the United States under the guise of religious ministry. Once here, they spread Islamist teachings that directly contradict American values of liberty, equality, and individual rights. They have used our own openness against us, fostering extremism, division, and parallel societies that threaten our national cohesion. Europe’s painful experience with imported radical preachers — resulting in no-go zones, honor violence, and rising terrorism — serves as a clear warning. America must act now before these patterns become entrenched in our communities. The IMAM Act closes this dangerous loophole while sending a firm message: entry into the United States is a privilege reserved for those who do not seek to undermine our republic.
