Rep. Keith Ellison Gives Emotional Testimony About Muslim First Responder
Rep. Peter King‘s congressional hearings on radical Muslims in the America has been a controversial subject across the political spectrum. King argues that, in the interest of American security, its important to look into any or all efforts made by Al Qaeda to recruit U.S. citizens. Critics believe that this singling out will only lead to more ill-will towards the US by the Muslim world, and that an examination of extremism should include all stripes, not just Muslims.
But Rep. Keith Ellison (D-NY), who is also a practicing Muslim, added a thoughtful perspective with an emotional testimony about a Muslim first responder who lost his life in 9/11.
