Carson Comments on Trumps Continued Anti-Muslim Rhetoric | 2015-12-08 | 2015 | 2015-12 | Democrat | House | IN | André Carson | C001072 | carson.house.gov | legacy | Washington, DC Today, Rep. Andr Carson (D-IN), the first Muslim Member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, issued the following statement: I am deeply troubled by the anti-Muslim rhetoric used by Donald Trump in his campaign for President. It is disturbing that a man seeking the highest office in the land, would exploit recent terrorist attacks to advance his own political agenda. At a time when incidents of hate and violence against American Muslims are on the rise, these provocative statements are highly irresponsible. Far too often our candidates play to fears and prejudices. A true leader rises above this and focuses on the potential of all Americans to move our country forward. Anti-Muslim rhetoric has gone far enough. Its time for all of our leaders, in both parties, to denounce it and present a vision that unites us all. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
