Washington, DC – November 6, 2024 – The Shia Muslim Foundation (SMF) congratulates President-Elect Donald J. Trump on his recent election victory. We extend our best wishes to President-Elect Trump as he prepares to assume the leadership of our nation.
During his first administration, President Trump demonstrated a commitment to engaging with the American Shia community, working closely with SMF and other Shia organizations to address community concerns. In January 2020, SMF met with Trump administration officials from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to discuss the unique challenges faced by Shia Americans in light of tensions in the Middle East. SMF’s regular collaboration with Mr. Bennett Miller from the DHS Office of Civil Rights & Civil Liberties underlined a productive, strong relationship, fostering dialogue and progress on issues affecting our communities domestically and abroad.
SMF looks forward to continuing our productive partnership with the new administration. As we confront challenges facing our nation and its diverse communities, we are optimistic that renewed collaboration will further our shared commitment to justice, peace, and unity for all Americans.
