Republican Congressman Brandon Gill faces backlash for comparing parts of Dallas to Pakistan, fueling Islamophobia and sparking debate over immigration and inclusive rhetoric.
Republican Congressman Brandon Gill of Texas sparked backlash after saying parts of Dallas feel "like Pakistan, not Dallas," citing concerns about the "Islamisation" of the area due to rising mosques and Muslim presence.
Speaking on Real America’s Voice and social media, he claimed constituents are alarmed by changes in communities and linked them to "mass Islamic migration," though he provided no data to support the claims.
The remarks drew widespread criticism for promoting Islamophobia and xenophobia, with critics noting the irony of a lawmaker of Indian descent making such statements.
The controversy has reignited national debates over immigration, cultural identity, and the responsibilities of public officials in fostering inclusive discourse.
