Freshman Congressmen Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib have wasted no time in shaking up the US House of Representatives. Early Friday morning, Omar and Tlaib introduced a bill adding Islamic holidays to the Federal calendar which has traditionally only recognized American holidays.

Omar and Tlaib’s bill would add Eid Al-Fitr at the end of Ramadan and the four-day-long celebration of Eid Al-Adha to the list of Federally recognized holidays, potentially granting reasons to banks, schools, and other businesses to remain closed for five additional days per year.

Omar and Tlaib justified their work as making America more inclusive of it’s Muslim-American population and moving us further away from our history as a primarily Christian nation. The women are also considering a last minute addition to their bill that would allow for regular Salah time breaks for school children and workers as well as a designated area in each public business where Muslims could perform Salah, the five daily prayers plus the Friday prayer, unmolested...

How about September 11 as a Muslim holiday?

[JewishRighter]

So it begins...they are audaciously pushing forward a Sharia agenda.

Five days? There is one Christian holiday on the calendar.

Do they plan on decapitating those who don't fast during Ramadan or will chopping off the hands and tongue be enough?

Thanks to “The Lightbringer”. Bastard!

Detroit is going to long for the days of John Conyers, who the Tliab traitor replaced. At least he was merely corrupt and not determined to demolish America

[Reno89519]

Sure, Halloween.

Watch for the Republicans to run for the hills rather than speak out against this.

NOPE

enjoy your winter break bitches

[dfwgator]

Waiting for the ACLU to oppose this.........

[a fool in paradise]

They don’t even call it a Christian holiday

And the ACLU is anti-Christian only, they sit with their thumbs up their rumps as Islamic theocracy comes from the federal government.

[Nifster]

We’ll see what happens with those bills

Eid is “die” spelled backwards.

Banks cannot stay closed more than 3 days in a row, by federal law. That is why we don’t have 4 day holiday weekends for Thanksgiving, or Christmas and New Years as would have been the case a few weeks ago.
