The midterm elections are crucial for Muslim Americans, especially given the increase in discrimination against our community under the current administration. That's why we need to make our voices heard on November 3rd by voting for candidates who will protect our right to religious freedom.

Although it was temporarily lifted, it's important to consider the implications of Trump's ban on the press for reporting what he calls “fake news.” His actions violate the First Amendment, which guarantees free speech and, most importantly, a free and independent press.

Muslim Day of Advocacy serves as a reminder of our civic power and our ability to effect change. This year, we had a significant turnout of individuals eager to advocate for Muslims in America. We rallied, engaged in discussions with elected officials, and ensured our voices were heard.

Voting rights don’t mean much if voters can’t access the ballot. 🇺🇸 🗳 Mail voting can be the difference between participating and being shut out. That's why this Supreme Court decision matters. Read more about protecting our right to vote in our Policy and Perspectives Newsletter Link in Bio.

“Just because I choose not to speak publicly… it doesn’t mean I don’t care.” Ed Sheeran said that in response to the Israel-Palestine conflict, but how many times have we heard that from members of our own Masjids? Now is the time to use your voice and civic power to effect change.

It’s clear Americans are growing tired of their taxes being used to advance a war they don’t support. We condemn Trumps decision to ship more destructive bombs to Israel on our dime.

We can learn a lot from Macklemore this election cycle. People expect more from their candidates than neutrality and silence on important topics. We need leaders who are not afraid to stand up for what’s right.

Calling Black women “unfit for the power they hold” because of the color of their skin is racist. This rhetoric is disparaging and un-American, and must be called out by every politician on both sides of the aisle. We stand in solidarity with our Black leaders in public service.
