Systems of Law and Terrorist Organizations

Summary

The act creates a new statute that stops Florida courts and agencies from applying foreign or religious legal systems—such as Sharia—when they would violate U.S. or state constitutional protections. It also gives the Chief of Domestic Security authority to designate foreign or domestic terrorist organizations, requires Governor and Cabinet approval, and bars public funds and schools from supporting or contracting with those groups. The law adds criminal penalties for providing support to designated terrorist groups and requires schools to expel students who promote them.
