Planned Muslim city in Texas could discriminate against Christians and Jews, Sen. Cornyn says


Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) asked the Department of Justice to open an investigation into East Plano Islamic Center’s plans to open a Muslim-centric city near Josephine, Texas.

A Sunday press release from Cornyn’s office announced that he sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi requesting that the DOJ investigate EPIC’s plans over concerns that the community would ban non-Muslim residents.

The press release noted that EPIC is already facing several investigations by Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) after it was accused of “risking religious discrimination of Christians, Jews, and other non-Muslim minorities.”
