US EditionDHS Reviews Biden-Era Grants to ‘Terror-Linked’ Groups
The Department of Homeland Security suspended $8 million in grants to 49 Muslim organizations amid allegations of terrorist links, initiating a review and enhanced vetting process for future funding.
- On Wednesday, the Department of Homeland Security halted more than $8 million in funding to various Muslim groups, citing connections to terrorism as reported by the Middle East Forum.
- This move came after a July report from the pro-Israel Middle East Forum accused DHS of distributing $25 million over a ten-year period to organizations linked to terrorism or extremism.
- The suspensions affected 49 projects, including organizations linked to Hezbollah support, Iranian government ties, and an Al-Qaeda-linked Quran donation, and DHS is reviewing future contracts accordingly.
- A DHS official told Fox News that the agency aims to avoid supporting organizations that might pose a risk to U.S. communities, highlighting their concerns about the funding.
- The Council on American-Islamic Relations condemned DHS decisions as politically motivated, saying the Middle East Forum smears groups supporting Palestinian rights, while DHS continues funding reviews amid limited evidence of wrongdoing.
