CAIR-Philadelphia

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, today released data showing an “unprecedented” increase in complaints of anti-Muslim or anti-Arab bias in the month since the escalation of violence in Israel and Palestine.

CAIR today condemned the House of Representatives for censuring Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), the lone Muslim Palestinian-American woman in Congress. She is being targeted for daring to support Palestinian human rights and calling for a ceasefire in response to Israel's ruthless killing of more than 10,000 Palestinian civilians in Gaza, including more than 4,800 children. 

CAIR-Philadelphia today condemned the targeting of Khair Community Center in Montgomery County with a hate message written on the mosque's main entrance door. The hate message left by the suspect or suspects were discovered early Friday morning.

CAIR-Philadelphia today called for a thorough investigation after an Upper Darby mosque member was killed in an apparent carjacking incident at the mosque’s parking lot that left another community member in critical condition.
