Tlaib responds to targeting of Michigan Muslim families | 2026-08-18 | 2026 | 2026-08 | Democrat | House | MI | Rashida Tlaib | T000481 | tlaib.house.gov | tlaib | https://tlaib.house.gov/press | scraper | Dearborn, Mich. – U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (MI-12) released the following statement in support of the Muslim community in Dearborn, Michigan, which is being targeted by Islamophobic white supremacists and Christian nationalists: “Islamophobic racists are yet again marching in Dearborn to terrorize a whole faith community. Dearborn is a beautifully diverse place, home to a vibrant, loving Muslim community, and our families do not deserve to be subjected to such hate and bigotry. Families are told to stay home for their own safety, unable to go back-to-school shopping, get groceries, or even walk outside. To all our Dearborn families and residents: I have your back. I wish I could take away this pain, but know that you are not alone. To our interfaith community that’s standing in solidarity with their Muslim neighbors: thank you for speaking out against this hatred. We need more of this love and compassion. “More leaders, including local elected officials, must speak out, especially against the local instigators participating in the spread of hatred under the guise of faith. Their silence is complacent and normalizes fearmongering and racism. We know that targeting any community doesn’t allow any of us to be safe. People of all faiths and of all backgrounds belong, and deserve to practice their religion and celebrate their cultures freely without fear.” | 1 | 2026-08-19T05:29:02Z | 2026-08-19T05:30:24Z |
