We are thankful to Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey for issuing a historic proclamation to recognize Ramadan. As an organization that is committed to increasing Muslim civic engagement, we are appreciative of the recognition and support that this proclamation represents.

Ramadan is a sacred time for Muslims in Massachusetts and around the world, and this proclamation serves as a powerful statement of inclusion and respect for our community. We hope that this proclamation will inspire our neighbors and public leaders to learn more about the significance of and the rich diversity of the Massachusetts Muslim community.

Ramadan Mubarak to our Muslim community. Wishing you all a blessed holy month of renewal and charity.

Let's take action together! Join me in contacting your state legislators and urge them to co-sponsor S.1994/H.3052 - an Act promoting the civil rights and inclusion of American Muslims in the Commonwealth.

This bill would establish a Massachusetts state commission dedicated to studying issues impacting the American Muslim community in the Commonwealth. By supporting this bill, we can combat Islamophobia, ensure the safety of our Muslim community, and promote inclusivity in Massachusetts.

Together, we can make our voices heard and work towards a more just and equitable future. Contact your state legislators today! It will only take 1-2 minutes!

In a letter exclusively shared with HuffPost, lawmakers led by Rep. Ilhan Omar and Sen. Elizabeth Warren urged the Treasury Department to “modernize” policies.

From Rowaida Abdelaziz : "After her father was murdered, her mother died & being placed through foster care, ⁦Aisha Wahab learned first hand how to advocate for herself.

Now as CA’s first Muslim & first Afghan American state senator, she hopes to do the same for others."

Wahab tapped into what she learned growing up in the foster care system to win her race and become the first Afghan American elected to the state Senate.

A great profile of USMNT Muslim star

"The beauty of Musah’s path, and part of what makes him so brilliant on the pitch, so fluid and so secure with the ball, is that he quickly adapts to each environment he’s in."

How did a rising soccer star from four different countries choose to play for the U.S. men’s national team? By looking within.
