It’s Time to Lock In

Defend & Advance is going all in behind two Muslim American leaders making history: Zohran Mamdani for Mayor of New York City and Ghazala Hashmi for Virginia Lt. Governor.

Your one action today: share the pledge link with your friends and family. These two Muslim Americans are leading a movement for justice, dignity, and representation. Help us grow the coalition before November 4.

Help us grow the coalition:

The link goes to the pledge form — every share grows the movement.

Zohran is a true New Yorker. He's fighting to freeze rents, invest in public housing, eliminate bus fares, and lower the cost of living, while pushing back against Islamophobia and systemic inequalities. Ghazala has introduced legislation like SB 1203 to expand protections in Virginia’s hate-crime statutes, and she champions accountability against Islamophobia, improved hate crime reporting, and stronger legal frameworks protecting religious minorities.

Share now. Grow the coalition. Let’s make history on November 4.

With urgency and hope,
Team Defend & Advance
