"Two days later, the congressman doubled down on his remarks and spoke as though the banning of dogs in New York was a possibility. And on Thursday, Fine tweeted that he would introduce legislation: I am proud to introduce the Protecting Puppies from Sharia Act. Democrats are losing their minds because I made a simple statementgiven a choice between our dogs and those who would ban them, the choice is easy. They can pound sand. This bill will ban federal funds to any state or local government that considers dogs haram."
"As The Hill noted, it is not exactly clear if there are any jurisdictions in the U.S. that outright ban dogs, though some municipalities have breed-specific bans. Fine's remarks did not indicate whether his legislation would require all jurisdictions to allow all dogs. The Hill said Fine's bill is expected to have at least four other Republicans as co-sponsors."
"Fine reposted a satirical tweet from an activist who supports New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the first Muslim to hold the position. Finally, NYC is coming to Islam, posted Nerdeen Kiswani. Dogs definitely have a place in society, just not as indoor pets. Like we've said all along, they are unclean."
Rep. Randy Fine announced the Protecting Puppies From Sharia Act to ban federal funds to any state or local government that considers dogs haram. The bill followed backlash after Fine reposted a satirical tweet suggesting dogs are unclean and not indoor pets. Fine said the choice between dogs and Muslims was easy and vowed the legislation, accusing Democrats of overreacting. Reporting noted uncertainty about any U.S. jurisdiction that outright bans dogs, though some municipalities have breed-specific bans. The bill reportedly has multiple Republican co-sponsors. Fine previously introduced the No Sharia Act and has made other incendiary remarks and tweets.
