However, with the political scene having changed and Sanders’ bid over, Biden is the undeniable decision for an organisation like this. The official letter pronouncing the PAC’s support of Biden marks the signatures of prominent Muslim politicians from the Democratic Party. The most notable among them being Ilhan Omar, a Congresswoman, and Keith Ellison, Attorney General of Minnesota.
He likewise legitimately accused Donald Trump of what he accepts is “an unconscionable rise in Islamophobia.” But he didn’t stop there. The previous Vice President additionally focused on President Trump for his movement boycott against residents of certain Muslim countries. Biden declared that he would annul the ban.
But the letter of endorsement also reminded everyone what the main target of the ongoing campaign is. “Our number one goal is to remove Donald Trump from office and to replace him with someone who can begin to heal our nation. A Biden administration will move the nation forward on many of the issues we care about,” the statement from Emgage Action read.
