On Monday, June 5 our CAIR-Philadelphia team hosted Muslim City Hall Day in collaboration with Emgage Pennsylvania.
We extend a huge thank you to our community members, leaders, elected officials, and students for coming out and showing the importance of the Muslim community’s voice in local government!
Review our advocacy agenda document (PDF) detailing our asks for halal meals, city-wide Eid, concerns around PPD, gun violence, school infrastructure, and more. The day was covered by WHYY’s Cory Sharber; read his article at WHYY.org.
Many thanks to our team members, Asiyah Jones, Zeynep Emanet, Aaron Gu, Rumi Irtazaa, George Lane and our Emgage colleagues Salima Suswell, Najah Siddiq, and Sabir Sabir Abdus-Shaheed for their partnership.
