"This election we must mobilize like we have never done before to bring out the vote in November 2020," said Nadia Ahmad, law professor and co-founder of Muslim Delegates and Allies Coalition 

"With increasing efforts by Muslim Americans to politically mobilize during the 2020 presidential elections, we are pleased to reflect this through our presence at the 2020 Democratic Convention. Muslim Americans, when politically literate and civically engaged, have the potential for immense impact on American politics. If harnessed properly, we can be a tremendously compelling force within our American democracy. Harnessing this force, and subsequently, executing it in ways that maximize impact, is precisely what we hope to do...," said Wa'el Alzayat, CEO of Emgage Action.
