It has been a very challenging and fruitful two weeks for CAIR-Florida!

• We conducted 11 seminars at local universities, colleges and churches on understanding Islam and challenging Islamophobia with hundreds of people in attendance!

• We successfully lobbied HART to reverse its position and allow advertising promoting diversity and civil rights!

• CAIR Florida is excited to announce Ghazala Salam as our new Government Relations Director for the entire State.

• We met with elected officials who had negative perceptions of the Muslim community and turned them into allies!

• We facilitated special TV media coverage on Latino American Muslims!

• We stopped a wrongful spying operation that targeted the Orlando & Miami Muslim community simply because of their faith!

• We exposed how the FBI violated 6th amendment right to attorney, by denying a Florida resident access to an attorney despite repeated requests. 

• We met with virtually every major federal justice and law enforcement agency to address issues of discrimination against Muslims in Central and South Florida.

• We Continued to provide free legal representation to dozens of victims of discrimination or government harassment throughout the state.

Thank you for your generous support which makes our efforts to protect civil rights and promote interfaith understanding possible!

Sincerely,

Hassan Shibly, Esq. & Nezar Hamze
