SENSE OF CONGRESS. It is the sense of Congress that-- (1) the Constitution of the United States is and must remain the supreme law of the land, and no foreign law or legal system may be permitted to undermine it; (2) attempts to apply foreign law, including religious or international codes, in American courts risk eroding constitutional protections, particularly in matters of family law, contract law, and civil rights; (3) safeguarding constitutional rights is especially urgent in cases involving women, children, and vulnerable populations who may face coercion or unequal treatment under foreign legal systems; (4) while individuals are free to practice their religion and observe personal codes voluntarily, United States courts must never enforce or give effect to laws that conflict with fundamental liberties guaranteed by the Constitution; and (5) this Act is necessary to reaffirm and protect the rights of all citizens by ensuring that only American laws govern American courts.
