Congresswoman Johnson Vows To Continue Working For Civil Rights Protection

While addressing a reception hosted by DFW Muslim Chamber of Commerce at Park Plaza in Dallas, she said that she spent her entire life fighting for civil rights of people and has travelled throughout the world for this purpose.

Congresswoman Johnson said personal liberties and freedom is the secret behind American prosperity and progress and this is the reason the immigrants come to US find opportunities and contribute to American society.

She said that this is the reason that immigrants have played a major role in American economic progress which cannot be ignored. She said that people come to US with big dreams and it is my duty as a Congresswoman to protect those dreams and this is why she voted against Patriot Act and subsequent bad laws aimed to curb personal liberties.

The congresswoman said that DFW offers great opportunities to businesses and she is very happy to see a much needed Muslim Chamber of Commerce here like other communities.
