The Trump administration continues to push white supremacist and exclusionary policies that discriminate on the basis of faith, national origin, and immigration status. We invite you to join us and declare #NoMuslimBanEver to raise awareness, resist and dismantle these policies.
No matter what SCOTUS decides it is important that we have a visible, strong presence across the country so this Administration and the American public knows that this matters to the Muslim community as well as the many others under attack by this administration and those who fight alongside them!
Since we do not know the exact date that the decision will come out, it is important that we start planning now so that we can ensure a strong, united, diverse and visible presence across the United States on a decision day!
Please organize or join an action near you!
In June 2018, the Supreme Court will issue a decision in the Muslim Ban litigation, Hawaii v. Trump that was heard on April 25, 2018.
On December 4, 2017, the Supreme Court reinstated the Muslim Ban and stayed the injunctions granted by the lower courts until a decision is rendered.Although the Supreme Court did not reach the merits of the Muslim Ban, it allowed the ban to take full effect. The Muslim Ban is the culmination of a long assault on Muslim communities, and its reinstatement has emboldened the President who continues to champion a white supremacist and Islamophobic agenda.
Just as we saw in January 2017, when the ban first went into effect, it has deferred dreams, separated families, deprived people of life saving health care, and blocked access to education. In addition, CBP staff have interpreted it broadly and overreached just as they have done in the past. It is critical that the Supreme Court summarily reject the ban in all its forms and reject white supremacy, xenophobia, and Islamophobia.
End policies, like bans, walls and raids, that treat our communities as inherently suspect and foster bigotry and hate.
Create safe spaces for people under threat by advocating for sanctuary policies, supporting sanctuary communities, and offering physical sanctuary.
Center communities directly affected by the Muslim and refugee bans, namely Muslims, refugees, and nationals from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.
The Muslim and refugee bans are on a continuum of exclusionary policies, White supremacy, xenophobia and racism. We are stronger when we understand these connections and work together.
