EMBRACE OUR RACIAL AND ETHNIC DIVERSITY

Muslim people are not a monolith. The diversity of American Muslims includes indigenous, immigrants, and second-third generation Arab, Latino, Asian, European, African, and African American Muslims. Representing a vast number of voices and views on civic, political, cultural, economic, social, and religious values. No one organization or entity can claim to epitomize and represent the American Muslim community.

The Muslim Caucus embraces the mosaic that is the American Muslim constituency. We welcome Muslims from every background to join the Muslim Caucus and help expand Muslim political power with a shared commitment to building a more just, inclusive, and equitable democracy.

MAINTAIN A TRANSNATIONAL OUTLOOK

We prioritize diplomacy, development, and the well-being of all people. We believe that the United States' safety depends on building security for everyone around the world. For too long Muslim people outside of the United States have suffered due to inequitable policy decisions made by the United States. The Muslim Caucus seeks a world in which the United States leads by example, acts to uplift, and reinforce all peoples’ desire for dignity, justice, equity, prosperity, and self-determination. Our domestic policy is interlinked with our foreign policy, so we are building a transnational movement for change. We are committed to advancing policies of liberation by dismantling unjust policies that subjugate Muslims and other disenfranchised communities by reinforcing intersectional grassroots movements to win real change. It is time to develop policies that recognize the autonomy, dignity, and freedom of Muslims inside and outside of the US.
