    Tell Congress: Repeal Trump’s Muslim Ban

    Petition to Congress:
    After 3 years under Trump’s racist Muslim ban, he has now extended it to more countries, banning even more Muslim families from entering the country. We urge you to oppose the Muslim Ban and pass the NO BAN Act (H.R. 2214/S. 1123) to stop discrimination against communities of color and religious-based discrimination. The No BAN Act would repeal Trump’s Muslim, asylum, and refugee bans that have been hugely damaging to our communities. We urge you to do everything you can to pass the NO BAN Act.

    The House of Representatives is going to vote soon on whether to repeal Trump’s Muslim ban.1

    It’s urgent we put as much pressure on Congress as possible to not only repeal the racist Muslim ban but also to ensure that no future president can enact a racist ban on immigrants ever again.

    Will you join the call to action from our partners at MPower Change, a Muslim grassroots movement, and call on Congress to stop race and religous-based discrimination?2

    Tell Congress: Repeal Trump’s Muslim, asylum, and refugee bans by passing the historic NO BAN Act.

    As a Muslim who is the child of immigrants, I was horrified to see the news that Trump was expanding his Muslim ban to specifically target African immigrant and Muslim families.3

    I know people who have stories like Pamela and Afshin Raghebi. Pamela has a painful health condition and hasn’t been able to see her husband for two years.

    Afshin Raghebi, Pamela’s husband of 7 years, desperately wants to see his wife but has been barred from coming back to the U.S. because of Trump’s hateful Muslim ban that has been tearing apart thousands of families.

    Instead of repealing the Muslim ban, Trump has expanded its vicious cruelty. We can’t let it get any worse.

    The NO BAN Act in Congress would repeal Trump’s Muslim, asylum, and refugee bans and ensure that no future president can enact a racist ban on immigrants ever again.

    Introduced by Rep. Judy Chu in the House and Sen. Christopher Coons in the Senate, the NO BAN Act has 216 co-sponsors in the House -- only one away from a majority.

    We’re so close to repealing the Muslim Ban. We must act now to stop Trump’s racist bans on African immigrants and Muslim families before more families are torn apart and more lives are ruined.

    Tell Congress: Pass the NO BAN Act to repeal Trump’s racist ban on African immigrants and Muslims.
