Cy-Fair ISD Pushes Back on Governor Abbott, Citing Constitutional Freedoms in Islamic Games Dispute

Cy-Fair ISD Superintendent Douglas Killian has rejected Governor Greg Abbott's demands to sever ties with the Houston Islamic Games, arguing the district's neutral facility-use policies are protected by constitutional principles of non-discrimination. The dispute highlights legal battles over executive power, religious freedom, and CAIR's challenge to Abbott's classification of it as a "foreign terrorist organization," raising questions about government overreach and school district autonomy.
