Muslim Advocates is grateful to Ms. Khera for her leadership and contributions to the organization over the past fifteen-plus years. In recognition of our shared history and common sense of purpose, Muslim Advocates and Ms. Khera remain united in our commitment to Muslim Advocates’ goal of protecting the civil rights of all American Muslims. Ms. Khera wishes the organization much continued success in the years to come, and she encourages those who have supported the organization in the past to remain engaged.
