    American Muslims Breaking Barriers IN POLITICS 2020 AMERICAN MUSLIMS BREAKING BARRIERS IN POLITICS 2020 1 Introduction Assalamualaikum, Peace be with you. The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, Jetpac, a representation-driven organization that trains American Muslims who want to run for office, and MPower Change, the largest Muslim-led social and racial justice organization in the United States, have partnered to highlight and document a list of candidates who ran for office in 2020, including in primary elections. It is our intention that this report serves as a resource and inspiration for other Muslims and people of color to run for public office in the United States. American Muslims are running for office in higher numbers than ever before, and this trend is expected to continue to rise with the many historic firsts we have seen across the country since 2017. A record 168 candidates were on 2020 ballots across 28 states and Washington D.C., which is the highest number since Jetpac, CAIR, and MPower Change started mapping the electoral progress of politicians who identify as Muslim. The candidates who have been running since 2017, win or lose, have continued to build coalitions in their communities after their campaigns ended, which has resulted in more Muslims being engaged in issue-based organizing on the local level. Muslim representation is still often neglected by policymakers, but the increase of candidates and community organizers is increasingly forcing elected officials and the media to include our perspective in the narrative on healthcare, the economy, immigration, and every other issue impacting American life.

Kevin Stitt Governor, State of Oklahoma 2300 N. Lincoln Boulevard Oklahoma City, OK 73105 Dear Governor Stitt, Over the last six years, it has been my sincere honor to serve and represent the constituents of Senate District 22. I have done my best to be a voice for voters in Piedmont, Yukon, NW Oklahoma City and Edmond, and they believed in me enough to elect me twice to this senate seat. I’m pleased to have been a part of so many positive changes during my tenure. In 2016, voters passed State Question 792, supporting alcohol modernization which opened the door for new businesses and opportunities across Oklahoma, resulting in nearly 5,000 new jobs. With the passage of State Question 788 and the successful enactment of HB 1269, of which I was the Senate author, Oklahoma is working to reduce our mass incarceration rates and the related fiscal and social costs that go with it. I’d be remiss if I did not mention supporting the largest increase in public education funding in the history of our state in 2018 totaling almost half a billion dollars, and the subsequent passage of an additional $120M in 2019 which you championed. But more important than these, are the families who have been impacted by legislation I carried. Two bills in particular, one which standardized investigations following the sudden, unexplained death of infants in Oklahoma, and the second which delayed the release of autopsy reports to the media so next of kin would be given time to process the information contained in the reports, are some of my proudest moments of service.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization; Jetpac, a representation-driven organization that trains American-Muslims who want to run for office; and MPower Change, the largest Muslim-led social and racial justice organization in the United States, have partnered to highlight and document a list of candidates who ran for office in 2020, including in primary elections. It is our intention that this report serve as an inspiration for other Muslims and BIPOC people to run for public office in the United States. We also wish that it will increase media coverage of the rise of American-Muslims in our political system, and be a helpful resource for organizations and community organizers looking to support American-Muslims in politics. American-Muslims are running for office in higher numbers than ever before, and this trend is expected to continue with the many historic firsts we have seen across the country since 2017. A record 181 candidates were on 2020 ballots across 28 states and Washington D.C., which is the highest number since Jetpac, CAIR, and MPower Change started mapping the electoral progress of politicians who identify as Muslim.

  • UPC Holds Socially Distanced Homecoming, Students Comment However, He Decided Not to Attend for Safety Reasons
    UPC holds socially distanced homecoming, students comment however, he decided not to attend for safety reasons. “Too many killings and corona is still a problem,” Drexler said. “Recently at the parties for Lafayette, there’s been a lot of shootings, including the young dude who died at the party at the park.” Drexler was referring to the shooting at Moore Park on Oct. 15. The attack occurred at a party after a UL Lafayette football game and resulted in two deaths. “It’s too much honestly. I want to go, but I’m not trying to catch a bullet when I’m really trying to have a good time,” he continued. Drexler also expressed a fear of contracting COVID-19 at one of UL Lafayette’s social gatherings. He said he did not intend to attend any occasions hosted by the university next semester because he feels the administration has been too lenient in terms of social distancing. Brannon also participated in pomping for Kappa Delta’s homecoming board. “We had a really small group of us pomping, literally only three of us, and we were spaced out.” Brannon said the UL Lafayette homecoming game on Saturday was more efficient in their distancing. “The football game was pretty distanced. I went with a Photo by David Reed / The Vermilion group of four girls, and they asked us to UL Lafayette’s 2020 Homecoming court on Monday, Oct. 5 at Cypress Lake. sit separately, which I thought was weird since other people were sitting in groups,” Eliana Bartlett As a substitution for these two events, her sorority’s homecoming board, along she said.
