Free will and self-determination are basic human rights that are under assault in a manner and scale not seen since World War II. Across the globe, ultra-nationalist parties and politicians have successfully directed the powers of the state to persecute ethnic and religious minorities. From India to Burma, to China, tens of millions of people are being denied their basic rights simply because they belong to a minority group.
Within U.S. borders, the rise of far-right extremism, White supremacy, and systemic inequities within the criminal justice system are threatening to devolve American society. We are arguably more divided now than any other time in modern American history.
As an organization committed to the rights and dignity of all individuals, our focus on domestic and international crises in the scope of human rights, equitable treatment, and religious freedoms is vital to our work. To ensure that we as Americans stand on the right side of history, we are working to initiate Congressional and Administrative actions to protect the liberties of ALL people.
As a Muslim American organization, we are guided by our faith to seek and uphold justice. "Truly God commands justice, virtue, and giving to kinsfolk, and He forbids indecency, wrong, and rebelliousness." (16:90)
In our Emgage Action 501(c)4 capacity, we are able to effectively lobby Congress on policies important to the community. We are able to hold individual elected officials accountable on the issues and are able to take clearly defined stances on legislation.
We connect our community to their elected officials to lobby policies important to us. We are able to hold individual elected officials accountable on the issues and are able to take clearly defined stances on legislation.
Our issue advocacy is our way of advancing policies to seek a more just and equitable society. We cannot want for ourselves what we do not wish for our brothers and sisters as well. Emgage Action also focuses on collaboration across the political gamut in order to best serve our advocacy work.
Through our presence on the Hill, Emgage Action is here to provide you updates in real-time on the most crucial legislation that we’re tracking in Congress. We are here to be your one stop shop to stay up-to-date on (1) the multitude of legislative priorities that are most important to the Muslim American community and (2) how YOUR elected officials vote and prioritize your concerns.
