Protecting Europe from Islamophobia Act
To require the Department of State to consult with Congress on Islamophobia in Europe.
HB9526 proposes to have the Department of State work closely with Congress to address Islamophobia in Europe. This means the State Department will need to consult with Congress on strategies and policies to combat Islamophobia across European countries. This bill is intended to help protect European citizens from discrimination and hate based on their religion.
This bill would primarily affect the Department of State and Congress, as they would need to collaborate on this issue. The goal is to ensure that European governments and communities have support in tackling Islamophobia effectively. It could also lead to more robust diplomatic efforts aimed at protecting religious minorities.
HB9526 was introduced on June 29, 2026, and was immediately referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs for further review. As of now, it is in the initial stages of the legislative process.
