CAIR sends 600,000 text messages asking Muslims to vote
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) sent out 600,000 text messages across key swing states to engage Muslim voters.
Executive Director Nihad Awad noted that while CAIR does not endorse candidates, it stresses the importance of voter turnout.
Awad emphasizes that participating in elections is crucial for ensuring that elected officials consider the needs of their constituents.
Over the last few months, activists have called for a united mobilization of Muslim Americans, encouraging them to use their political power to make their voices heard at the ballot box.
Acknowledging concerns over U.S. support for Israel’s ongoing wars on Palestine, and Lebanon, Awad urges the community not to remain passive.
