Last week, the Kansas legislature adopted legislation to ensure that the U.S. Constitution remains, as its Article VI declares, “the supreme law of the land.” The bill, known as the “American Laws for American Courts” act ensures that judges cannot use foreign laws instead of ours if doing so would violate citizens’ constitutional rights.
Such an initiative has been made necessary particularly by the insinuation of the Islamic code known as shariah into U.S. courts. Where that occurs, the losers are usually women and children who have under shariah law few, if any, of the liberties we take for granted.
Kansas Representative Peggy Mast deserves great credit for engineering the adoption of American Laws for American Courts by her colleagues. Shariah’s proponents are demanding a veto by Governor Sam Brownback. Ain’t gonna happen.
