GovInfo lists H.R. 9567, sponsored by Rep. Keith Self, as introduced June 30, 2026 and referred to the House Judiciary Committee. The bill would bar federal courts and adjudicative bodies from recognizing or enforcing foreign or religious law that conflicts with the U.S. Constitution or federal law.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Official records show Self introduced substantive legislation aimed at preventing competing foreign or religious legal frameworks from superseding the Constitution, but the latest official action is referral to committee, so the commitment remains only partially delivered.

Keith Self took direct same-term federal action aligned with the promise by introducing H.R. 9567 and H. Con. Res. 116, both aimed at rejecting Sharia or competing religious/foreign legal frameworks and affirming constitutional supremacy. However, the cited measures were only introduced and referred to committee, with no evidence they were enacted, adopted, or otherwise produced a binding federal outcome. That supports partial credit for a serious legislative effort, not full delivery.
