Assalaamu 'alaykum John,

Why are promises so important to our mission?

We believe that, above all, God's promises are true. He instructs us to
keep our promises too, and to be firm in standing up for justice.

We also believe in the promise of America, but prejudice is standing in
the way. Fortunately, the laws of this land provide the foundation for
an America with liberty and justice for all, and Muslim Legal Fund of
America is here to ensure that these promises are fulfilled.

Despite the U.S. Constitution's guarantee of equal justice, Muslims
still face violations of religious freedom from law enforcement,
employers, and other federal agencies.

Worse yet, these actions don't just affect individuals -- they affect
families and entire communities.

WHAT ARE THE BROKEN PROMISES OF AMERICA?

* Freedom of Religion - Muslim prisoners are denied halal meals and
other religious accommodations. Federal employees who identify as Muslim
are treated with suspicion and often lose their jobs as a result.

* Freedom of Movement - Muslims face unique travel restrictions in the
form of the No-Fly List and "special security screenings" without due
process.

* Freedom of Assembly - Groups are abusing zoning laws to take away
right to build and expand mosques.

* Freedom of Speech - More than 300 nonprofits lost status since 2011
as Muslims charities receive undue scrutiny.

* Financial Security - Banks are closing accounts of Muslims because
of new regulations making it more difficult to provide humanitarian aid
overseas.

* Opportunity - Immigration delays, denials or other harmful actions
on the basis of the applicant being Muslims.

We hold America accountable to its broken promises, and vow to defend
the rights and liberties afforded to all its citizens, regardless of
their ethnicity, religion, identity, or background.

Our mission is to advance equality and justice for American Muslim
organizations and individuals by promoting legal compliance and
protecting their rights in matters concerning national security law.

WE BELIEVE THAT:

* The U.S. Bill of Rights Applies to Muslims in America.

* Muslims Have the Right to Fair Trials.

* Being Muslim Should

**Not** Make You a Suspect or Target of Law Enforcement Agencies.

* Injustice Against One is an Injustice Against All.

* Without Justice, There is No Freedom or Liberty.

John, will you join us in fulfilling promises and upholding an
America for all?

DONATE TODAY!

In faith and for justice,

Khalil Meek
Executive Director
Muslim Legal Fund of America
