Back in November, I wrote "Is Texas About to Fall to Islam?," raising concerns about Sharia-influenced projects, parallel societies, and the gradual erosion of Texas culture. Things looked worrying then. But by mid-2026, the situation has changed. Texas isn't falling; it's fighting back. With strong Republican leadership, active grassroots groups, and clear signals from primary voters, the state has moved from defense to offense. What began as anxiety has led to real policy wins, election results, and organized resistance. The Lone Star State is showing the rest of the country how to respond to theocratic overreach. Governor Greg Abbott acted quickly. Last September, he signed House Bill 4211, which targets what it calls "Sharia compounds"—residential setups built around religious law. The bill affected proposals like the East Plano Islamic Center's large EPIC City plan north of Dallas, where critics were concerned about exclusionary housing rules based on faith and separate community norms that might conflict with Texas and U.S. law. The legislation requires clear disclosures about how these developments are managed, ensures disputes are handled in state courts, and prevents large-scale religious restrictions on sales. Abbott described it as a balance: protecting genuine religious freedom without allowing Sharia to be imposed on anyone.
In addition, Abbott's team labeled CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood as foreign terrorist organizations at the state level. This decision limits land deals and gives Attorney General Ken Paxton more tools for oversight. Paxton's office has responded by investigating possible informal Sharia enforcement and providing guidance to sheriffs and prosecutors. Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick also introduced interim charges focused on keeping Sharia out of Texas.
Voters made their position clear. In the March 2026 Republican primary, Proposition 10, which calls for Texas to ban Sharia law, passed with almost 95% support. While it's non-binding, this landslide result sends a strong message for the 2027 session: constitutional rules come first, with no exceptions for incompatible ideologies.
The campaigns took up this issue in earnest. Anti-Islamisation became a major theme in the primaries. For example, Bo French, the former Tarrant County GOP chair, is now heading to the Railroad Commission after his May runoff win. At CPAC Texas, he spoke on the “Don’t Sharia My Texas” panel and was direct, arguing that the problem goes beyond Sharia and includes Islam as a governmental system that does not fit the Constitution. French's straightforward comments about the "Islamic invasion" and his plans to use his office to resist it clearly resonated with voters, even if it upset some in the establishment.
Other Texas candidates also spoke out. Aaron Reitz, running for Attorney General, focused on blocking the "invasion" of ideas he believes do not belong in Texas. State Senator Mayes Middleton and experienced politicians like Ken Paxton included warnings about no-go zones and parallel societies in their messages. These themes connected directly to border security and preserving Texas identity, energizing their supporters.
There is also the Sharia Free Texas Caucus, launched in early March by State Representatives Brent Money of Greenville and Brian Harrison of Midlothian. Modeled after a federal group that includes Texas congressmen like Keith Self and Chip Roy, it grew quickly from about 16 members to 38 Republican state representatives. This is a significant bloc in the House. Members include Daniel Alders, Janis Holt, Andy Hopper, Carrie Isaac, Mitch Little, Shelley Luther, Katrina Pierson, and Steve Toth. Their focus is clear: to educate people on why Sharia conflicts with the Constitution, to push for bans in housing and schools, and to strengthen Texas's Judeo-Christian roots, while welcoming immigrants who want to become Texans.
This aligns with groups like True Texas Project and their “Don’t Sharia My Texas” campaign, as well as efforts to review school standards and emphasize American values. Court challenges against questionable projects also help maintain pressure.
Of course, there are challenges such as ongoing lawsuits, demographic changes, and critics who are quick to call out "Islamophobia." But the direction is clear: from stopping EPIC City to the Proposition 10 landslide, Texas is choosing sovereignty, women's safety, and basic liberty over quiet accommodation. My years tracking grooming gangs and parallel societies in the UK make this issue feel personal. Texas is showing that early, firm action can be effective. With the November midterms and the 2027 session approaching, staying vigilant will determine how far this momentum continues.
Texas is no longer on the defensive. It is starting to win, and it is a model worth watching.

Islam does not allow free choice. If you choose not to join you must pay is there any other that uses such force?
“Sharia Free Texas Caucus”
…every state should implement this.
We absolutely an NOT allow islamic practice in Texas. If only the general populace knew the danger. It is so hard to educate people.
The title block of this “blueprint” should state that “Unless otherwise specified, tolerances for all dimensions are +/- zero.”
Why should Muzzies ruin a perfectly good civilization when all they have to do is to return to their fetid third-world ‘civilizations’ from which they oozed?
And still mosques go up.
Here’s another Indian scam in Texas that needs to be stopped:
“A Texas real estate license holder, testified at a Frisco City Council meeting about widespread housing & employment abuses tied to immigrants from India.
Indian applicants qualify for apartments but vanish after approval, with friends or others taking keys and the original leaseholder returning to India, bypassing standard background checks. **Once units go to Indian tenants, they sublease internally via Indian Facebook groups and apps, excluding all other races and nationalities.* Fake tech companies hire entry-level H1Bs, pay for 10 apartments at a time, and supply groceries, while Americans lose jobs to these replacements and face evictions that block renting for 4-7 years!*”
Has there been a constitutional challenge yet?
Texas hasn’t done shit
Greg Abbot talk a good game and does the opposite every time absolute farce of a governor.
Has to be stopped. Present ones need to be demolished. NO islam here. People are going to pay a horrific price if it continues.
You are one messed up individual. I can not believe you are allowed to still post here.
Because I pointed out that Abbott lies about everything?
As for messed up, at least I am not some loudmouth keyboard warrior talking about rounding people up who disagrees with me while knowing I am not gonna do shit
Look in the mirror
No constitutional challenge that I know of. But I hope that our Supreme Court can discern the difference between a true religion that offers free choice & a “religion” that is actually a political ideology with no choice.
You’re stepping on the wrong toes.
“Texas hasn’t done shit
Greg Abbot talk a good game and does the opposite every time absolute farce of a governor.”
Yep
Period.
How’s that?
