“We are incredibly proud of the Biden’s victory in Michigan, for which the Muslim vote was essential. While some pundits might want to rewrite history, we know the truth: the Muslim vote was critical to the victory in Michigan. Thank you to the hundreds of volunteers with Emgage Action and to the tens of thousands of Muslims who voted for a better future. ” – Wa’el Alzayat, CEO of Emgage Action
