Halal food in US schools
BSS, New York
The powerful US Senate (sic) is likely to witness a bill from Democrat Senator John Sabini, who is pursuing to ensure 'halal food' for Muslim students in schools of the city and the state as well.
"The 'Halal Food Bill' will be placed before the State Senate shortly," John said at a fund-raising meeting in the city on Thursday.
Bangladesh Expatriates in New York organised the programme, where John Sabini also said that he and some other Democrat senators have been trying their best to raise funds from US business community for the cyclone-hit people in Bangladesh.
John Sabini has made a success last year, when he put forward a bill in the senate asking government to keep Eid days free from public examinations for Muslims. The bill has been passed to enact a new law.
District Leader of Democratic Party Mohammad Amunullah and president of American- Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce Gias Ahmed, among others, spoke on the occasion.

This is dhimmitude of the worst kind nonetheless.
I’m sure we’ll be hearing from the ACLU on this. /sarc
Do they already offer kosher menus?
bkmarking this. Thanks.
mmmmmm Kosher for mooslims
Kaasher = fit, right, meet, just = halal
Lo kaasher = unfit = haram
anyone ever heard of a bag lunch?
“Do they already offer kosher menus?”
Gelfite fish lunches for everyone just one day and things will return to normal.
First thing I thought of, too.
Also, are Jewish or Christian or Hindu or Buddhist, or ... students 'free from public examinations' on their holy days, if it isn't a major "secular" holiday as well?
This is a Halal of an idea!

Running scared liberals appeasing Muslims.
The end of America.
Let em eat pork....or pay for their own damn food
Way back when I went to public school, they served fish every Friday.
(snort)
Shaking my head! Halal food in US schools ..more bending over for the Muslims! if they want Halal food let them bring it from home. This is BS.
redefines pathetic, doesn’t it?
When do they enact the “Dhimm Crow” laws, and segregate us?
Boy weren't you lucky! We only got fish sticks on Fridays. Or, maybe creamed tuna on toast, in really cold weather.
Probably just as far back as when you were there.
That died when PC pendulum swung one way.
Now that the PC pendulum is swinging the other way, we have to forbid state support of any Christian religion and mandate state support of other religions.
For a government supposedly founded on the principle of non-interference with religion, it sure does seem to be in a permanent "meddle" mode.
Ah, nothing like diversity and division, Dims love this stuff, divide and conquer. How much will this cost the middle class taxpayers SENATOR! Feels good to spend some one elses money and not your own on people who will not assimilate and have no interest in becoming Americans. Feckless, spineless socialists
