US EditionRoy leads congressional delegation calling to halt federal funding for CAIR
The delegation cited alleged terrorism ties and $15 million in HHS subgrants since 2022 as it sought an investigation and debarment.
- On Monday, Texas Congressman Chip Roy led a congressional delegation urging Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to suspend funding for the Council on American-Islamic Relations and initiate debarment proceedings.
- Roy argues that CAIR's documented ties to Hamas, a Foreign Terrorist Organization, alongside alleged financial mismanagement, render the group unfit for federal grants exceeding $15 million since 2022.
- Public records indicate CAIR-CA received more than $7.2 million for an Afghan legal aid project, yet allegedly redirected $3.6 million to itself while failing to report millions in government grants on 2022 and 2023 IRS filings.
- Beyond the letter, Roy recently introduced legislation to designate CAIR as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist Organization, which would revoke its tax-exempt status and prohibit federal interactions.
- State-Level initiatives have already designated CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood as foreign terrorist organizations, with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Texas Governor Greg Abbott cutting off state funding, contracts, and support.
