Washington, D.C. | www.mpac.org | November 22, 2024 — The Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) welcomes a historic milestone for our nation and the American Muslim community. This week, Amir Ali was confirmed to serve as a United States District Judge for the District of Columbia.

Judge Ali’s confirmation is a proud moment for all who value justice, inclusion, and the strengthening of our democracy through representation. As the first Arab American and Muslim to serve in this role, his appointment is a testament to the growing contributions of our diverse communities to the fabric of our nation.

Throughout his distinguished career, Judge Ali has been a champion of civil rights and justice, serving as President and Executive Director of the MacArthur Justice Center and teaching at Harvard Law School. His dedication to fairness and equality reflects the very best of what the judiciary can offer.

As we prepare for the incoming administration, uncertainty continues to flood our communities. However, Judge Ali’s confirmation is a powerful reminder that progress is not out of reach. His presence on the bench not only strengthens Muslim and Arab representation in leadership, but also helps to spark hope in the systems designed to safeguard all Americans.

We are deeply inspired by his achievement and celebrate the example it sets for future generations. It reminds us that our shared commitment to equality and representation can open doors for all communities to serve and contribute at the highest levels of leadership.

As we highlight Judge Ali’s historic appointment, we also shine a light on the collective efforts of the many institutions that stood by our side and proudly worked towards making this confirmation a reality. We will continue to highlight the successes of our community and the rich contributions the American Muslim community makes daily to the American mosaic.

MPAC looks forward to continuing to uplift the diverse voices of our communities and advocate for policies and opportunities that bring us closer to realizing a more inclusive and just society for all.
