Governor Abbott Orders Texas Rangers Investigation Into East Plano Islamic Center

News summary

Texas Governor Greg Abbott has directed the Texas Rangers to investigate the East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) for potential criminal activities, marking the fifth investigation into the organization amid concerns over its proposed development, EPIC City. Abbott emphasized Texas's commitment to law enforcement, stating that those attempting to evade scrutiny will face justice. The investigations also involve other state agencies, including the Texas Workforce Commission, which is examining potential violations of fair housing laws, and the Texas Attorney General's office, which is looking into consumer protection concerns. EPIC City, a planned community featuring over 1,000 homes and various facilities, is being developed by Community Capital Partners, a group formed by EPIC members. Despite these allegations, EPIC representatives have claimed that the community will be inclusive and accessible to all. The investigations reflect ongoing scrutiny from Texas leaders regarding the project and its implications for local governance.
