51 Groups call on King to cancel hearings

Fifty-one groups have sent a letter to Speaker Boehner this week asking Rep. Peter King to call off his planned hearings on radicalization in the American Muslim community. From their letter:

Singling out a group of Americans for government scrutiny based on their faith is divisive and wrong. These hearings will inevitably examine activities protected by the First Amendment, an affront to fundamental freedoms upon which our country was founded. It harkens back to hearings held in the 1950s by then-U.S. Senator Joe McCarthy. That dark chapter in our history taught us that Congress has a solemn duty to wield its investigatory power responsibly.

In the course of justifying the focus of the hearings, Chairman King has made broad and unsubstantiated assertions about the American Muslim community.

King issued his own statement: "I don't believe it warrants an answer," the New York Republican said Wednesday. "I am too busy preparing for the hearings."
