This legislation will amend the EB-4 special immigrant visa provision, including the religious worker category, to require covered aliens to disavow sharia law and take an oath to uphold the United States Constitution.
Require covered EB-4 religious-worker visa applicants to disavow sharia law and swear an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution.
Occurrences
Evidence
The office press release says Moore introduced the CRUSADE Act on May 12, 2026, and that it would amend the EB-4 special immigrant visa provision, including the religious worker category, to require covered aliens to disavow sharia law and take an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution. It describes the bill as an introduction, not enacted law.
GovInfo records H.R. 8017 as introduced by Mr. Moore of Alabama and referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. The bill title is Defeat Sharia Law in America Act, but the record shows only introduction and referral, with no enacted change to EB-4 or the religious-worker visa category.
Assessments
Moore introduced legislation proposing the promised EB-4 religious-worker visa oath and sharia-disavowal requirement, so he made a serious same-term legislative attempt. The cited official records show only introduction and committee referral, with no enacted federal law or implemented visa-policy change. Because the promised requirement was not delivered, the outcome is not fulfilled, but the effort badge applies.
