Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, echoed continuing warnings from some lawmakers regarding the influence of mass Islamic immigration and Sharia law in the United States, which he claimed earlier this week poses a fundamental threat to the American system.

“If we want to preserve America, the country that we know and love, our constitutional order, we have to wake up and realize that mass Islamic immigration is incredibly harmful,” Gill said during an interview with journalist Erick Stakelbeck. “What we don’t want to see is the American way of life fundamentally transformed because you have Islamic pressure on our legal system.”

Gill warned such is already “starting to happen” in the U.S., adding, “We can be politically correct about it, or we can wake up and we can defend our country.”

The congressman went on to caution that swaths of cities such as London and Paris have effectively become self-governing enclaves of Sharia within a Western democracy after decades of mass Muslim immigration.

Is America sleepwalking into the same Islamic crisis now gripping Europe?

Congressman @realBrandonGill issues a stark warning: if we want to preserve the America we know and love, we must wake up to the dangers of mass Islamic immigration.

“You’ve got parts of Paris or London that no longer look Parisian or English anymore,” he said. “You’ve got areas in both of those cities that are no-go zones for native Parisians or native Londoners. That is a problem.”

“What we don’t want to see is parallel legal institutions popping up in the United States, which they are, in the same way that you have in Europe,” he added.

Gill, a Christian and member of the U.S. House’s burgeoning Sharia-Free America Caucus, has been among several Republicans on Capitol Hill who have been lately sounding the alarm about Islamic law, which they argue is incompatible with the U.S. Constitution.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization in the U.S., designated the caucus as an extremist organization shortly after Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, and another Texas congressman established it in January amid concerns about the influx of Muslim immigration to Texas.

During a House hearing last month on the issue, chaired by Roy and attended by The Christian Post, Gill cited figures from a 2024 survey by The Heritage Foundation that found 39% of Muslims in the U.S. believe Sharia law should be implemented in the country within the next two decades.

The survey also found that half of Muslims in the U.S. believe depicting Muhammad should be illegal, and 33% believe Islam should be declared as the national religion.

Gill’s figures prompted snickering at the time from Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., who was among the Democrats at the hearing who were dismissive of the Sharia threat and raised concern instead about the alleged danger posed by “white Christian nationalism.”

Last week, House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., also claimed Sharia in the U.S. is “a serious problem.”

“Sharia law and the imposition of Sharia law is contrary to the U.S. Constitution,” Johnson said. “Our Constitution is the greatest in the world. It’s the longest surviving Constitution on the planet, and we’re 250 years into this grand experiment in self-governance.”

The speaker went on to say that assimilation is necessary from immigrants to the U.S., but that some of them aim to impose Sharia law.

“It is not about people, as Muslims; it is about those who seek to impose a different belief system that is in direct conflict with the Constitution,” he added.

Johnson’s remarks were in response to a question about a recent X post from Rep. Andy Ogles, R-Tenn., who claimed that “Muslims don’t belong in American society” and that “pluralism is a lie.”

In the wake of a mass shooting in Austin, Texas, earlier this month, Ogles proposed legislation that would ban immigrants from Iran, Libya, North Korea, Syria, Venezuela and Yemen.
