Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier issued a warning to the Coral Springs Commission about hosting a Muslim conference later this month. In a Friday evening social media post, Uthmeier reminded commissioners that the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) is a “designated terrorist organization.”

Uthmeier wrote:

“Coral Springs should remember that state and local resources cannot be used by any organization affiliated with CAIR, which is a designated terrorist organization.

The city commission is on notice.”

Uthmeier issued the warning after CoralSpringsTalk.com reported how outraged residents asked the Commission not to allow the Florida Muslim Conference to be held on January 30-31.

“Coral Springs, whether by complacency or complicity, has decided to provide the arts center – a tax-funded facility – to this group,” Rabbi Simcha Goldstein told commissioners. “Members of this group include organizations that have been determined to be terrorist organizations,” he said, referencing CAIR.”

County Commissioner Michael Udine

On Monday, Broward County Commissioner Michael Udine announced a resolution in support of Israel and its citizens. The full County Commission will take up the resolution at Tuesday’s meeting in Fort Lauderdale. Click here to read the resolution.

Udine made the following announcement on his social media platforms:

At [Tuesday’s] @browardinfo Commission meeting, the first since the horrific attacks on the State of Israel, I will be sponsoring a resolution in support of Israel and its citizens. These tragic attacks against our ally are nothing short of repugnant, a war crime, and a violation of human rights. Many in our community have family and friends that reside in Israel. As someone who has not only visited, but worked towards greater ties between our communities, these events bring feelings of disbelief and sadness. Today and every day I will stand with Israel, the Jewish people, and our community— this resolution reflects the steadfast support of @BrowardCounty.
