Dear Friend,

I sent the below e-mail almost a year ago on July 3, 2019.

Today on May 15, 2020, I write to share that the Khalid Jabara and Heather Heyer NO HATE Actjust passed the U.S. House of Representatives as part of a larger COVID-19 relief package.

I am so incredibly proud of the role our team at the Arab American Institute played in identifying this gap in reporting and seeking a remedy to address it. While action in the Senate is uncertain, I wanted to share today’s victory with you because it is an important milestone. Nothing can bring back Khalid or Heather, but passage of Jabara-Heyer will ensure their stories live on in a way that helps other victims of hate crimes.

We will be in touch again as soon as there are developments in the Senate. Until then, thank you for your continued support and we hope that you and your loved ones are all staying safe.

Best,

Maya

Maya Berry

Executive Director
