Ellison went to a Islamic hajj pilgrimage to [[Mecca]] this past winter, becoming the first U.S. congressman to make the pilgrimage. After claiming he paid for the trip, it was determined to be paid for by a U.S. group tied to Muslim extremists, the Muslim American Society of Minnesota. <ref>[http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=101400 Keith Ellison's office hangs up on WND] WorldNetDaily, June 17, 2009</ref>
