Commissioner Miller Blasts CAIR, Praises Governor Abbott for Designating it a Terrorist Organization (11/18/2025)

The following statement may be attributed to Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller:

“Six weeks ago, I was attacked by the Council for American Islamic Relations (CAIR) for opposing radical Islam and calling them terrorists. I asked they be named a terrorist organization, and I am pleased that Governor Abbott has done so today.

Radical Islamic terrorism is a cancer on the world, and I will always stand up for American exceptionalism and the American way of life.

I will not allow these extremists to impose Sharia law on Texas and will not be bullied into silence by CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood. With this declaration, Texans won’t either.”
