Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s vile anti-Arab rant is a textbook display of unvarnished racism and bigotry. To stand on a public stage as a sitting U.S. cabinet official and dehumanize half a billion people – and millions of Muslim and Christian Arab Americans – with fabricated, white supremacist talking points is utterly disqualifying for public office. His sweeping erasure of Arab contributions to humanity is not only maliciously false, but it also fans the flames of anti-Arab and anti-Muslim hate at a time when communities are already vulnerable to bigoted attacks from other public officials nationwide. Anyone who holds such blatant contempt for an entire ethnicity has no business leading a federal agency meant to serve all Americans.

AI presents opportunities and risks for Muslim communities. How can we harness its potential while protecting our communities from emerging threats like AI-powered surveillance? On the latest episode of CAIR on Air, tech entrepreneur and former Microsoft engineer Shaden Awad discusses AI ethics, economic opportunities, and why Muslims need a seat at the table as this technology evolves. 🎥 Watch now: youtube.com/watch?v=8o9PGKvD…

It should be unacceptable to the White House and Congress for the Israeli government to continue kidnapping Americans and disappearing them into prisons known for torture, all without any criminal charges or other due process. The Trump administration has a legal and moral obligation to protect American citizens overseas, especially from rogue governments funded by American taxpayer dollars. We urge Congress to exercise its oversight authority and demand that the State Department secure Abdalkareem’s swift and safe release.

While it is deeply disappointing that a narrow majority of senators chose to block basic transparency, the fact that nearly half the U.S. Senate voted to demand accountability for Americans killed by Israeli forces and illegal settlers marks a watershed moment. For far too long, the U.S. government has applied a double standard when American citizens are murdered or brutalized abroad, granting total impunity to the Israeli military and violent settlers. The American people deserve a government that protects all its citizens, regardless of their heritage or where they travel. We thank Senator @ChrisVanHollen and the 46 other senators who stood up for basic human rights, American lives, and the rule of law, and we will continue urging Congress to end blank-check military aid to the Israeli government.

THE SENATE COULD VOTE AS SOON AS TONIGHT. CONTACT YOUR SENATORS NOW AND URGE THEM TO VOTE YES ON S.RES. 852 Muhammad Seif El-Deen was 12. He should have been going to school and imagining his future. Instead, he was shot and killed this week by Israeli forces in Rafah City. His family deserves answers. Palestinian children deserve lives free from violence. And the American public deserves to know what our government knows and what it has done in response. Sen. Chris Van Hollen’s S. Res. 852 would require the State Department to report on Israel’s actions against Americans and Palestinians. It is a step toward the transparency and oversight that families have been denied. Tell your senators to vote YES on S. Res. 852. It takes only a moment to send your message: 🔗 action.cair.com/a/report-the…

We're calling on the Senate Judiciary Committee to reject Adam Candeub’s nomination to serve as Assistant Attorney General for the DOJ’s Antitrust Division. “The Department of Justice must be led by officials who can be trusted to enforce the law fairly and protect the rights of all Americans. Mr. Candeub’s anti-Muslim writings, his reported failure to disclose more than 100 writings to the Senate, and his criticism of a central law protecting survivors of gender-based violence raise serious questions about his judgment and candor. The Senate Judiciary Committee should oppose his nomination.” Read more: tinyurl.com/24ky7jff
