Walz Assures Muslims a ‘Side by Side’ Role in Harris Administration

Ahead of the 2024 election, vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris and her ally Tim Walz have pledged to actively engage the Muslim community in government. During a recent online event hosted by Emgage Action, Walz expressed support for Muslim and Arab Americans, noting the importance of combating anti-Islamic and anti-Arab sentiment. Harris and Walz promise that if elected, Muslims will be given the opportunity to serve “side by side” in the administration. This is especially important given the ongoing war in Gaza and the Biden administration’s support for Israel, which has caused a wave of discontent among Muslim voters. Walz also emphasized the need for an immediate end to the war and expressed solidarity with the Muslim community. In this video, we discuss how Harris’ policies could impact relations with Muslims and potential changes for the Muslim community in the United States.
