Six more countries.
Trump expanded his racist Muslim ban to include six more countries, Advocate.
Not because of a security threat, and not for economic reasons. Because of hate. Since Trump took office, hate-filled rhetoric and policies have become commonplace, with ongoing violence against our communities.
We can't let Trump's xenophobic tactics go unchecked. Urge Congress to pass the No Ban Act now.
This is not complicated. The bill will end the Muslim ban and prevent future bans on people for how they pray and how they look. Congress has been sitting on the No Ban Act for nearly a year — while Trump doubles down on his hateful agenda. It's time to ramp up our efforts and make our voices heard.
This country was founded on basic principles of freedom and equality. Restricting people with different religious and ethnic backgrounds is xenophobic and racist. Period.
It's time for Congress to step up and do the right thing. Urge Congress to pass the No Ban Act today!
Thanks for all you do,
The Leadership Conference
