Dear Friend,
Millions of American families, who are cruelly separated under the Muslim and African Bans, need the incoming administration to right this wrong — immediately — and begin a process to reverse the anti-Muslim bigotry that’s been incorporated into federal policy for so long.
Yesterday, I met with President-elect Biden’s transition team to lay out the specifics for where to start .
In order to begin restoring trust and confidence that Muslims and immigrants will be treated equally under the law, the Biden/Harris administration will need to:
*
Rescind
the
Ban
on
Day
One.
This
first
step
will
be
vital
to
moving
beyond
the
rhetoric
of
the
past,
but
it
alone
will
not
undo
the
damage.

*
Institute
the
necessary
steps
to
reunite
families
as
quickly
as
possible.
Visa
applications
from
the
affected
countries
must
be
processed
on
an
expedited
schedule,
fees
should
be
waived,
and
both
the
U.S.
Department
of
Homeland
Security
and
the
U.S.
Department
of
State
must
rigorously
review
their
policies
and
practices.

*
Prioritize
passage
of
the
NO
BAN
Act,
the
first
Muslim
civil
rights
bill,
within
the
first
100
days
to
ensure
no
President
is
able
to
abuse
the
Immigration
and
Nationality
Act
in
a
discriminatory
manner
again.
Ending the Muslim and African Bans will take more than a day. We must repair these deep wounds by ensuring this weaponization of the law never occurs again.
We will hold the incoming administration to their word, but we need your help. That’s why I’m encouraging you to sign this petition to the Biden transition team urging them to make good on the promises that they’ve made to the American Muslim community. [[link removed]]
