Mashallah!

The beauty of our country is for once ability to exercise their religion freely.

I so happy to see people being tolerant and respectful in this time of worship for Muslims.
Here is what the Adhan “call to prayer” says:

Allahu Akbar

Ashhadu an la ilaha illa Allah

Ashadu anna Muhammadan Rasool Allah

Hayya 'ala-s-Salah

Hayya 'ala-l-Falah

Allahu Akbar

La ilaha illa Allah
Here is the translation:

God is great.
I bear witness that there is no god except the One God.
I bear witness that Muhammad is the messenger of God
Hurry to the prayer (Rise up for prayer)
Hurry to success (Rise up for Salvation)
God is Great
There is no god except the One God

Today, our movement faces a setback.

But every single setback is an opportunity to push for progress.
The American people still want to live in a society where their human right to healthcare is guaranteed, where we confront the climate crisis, and where they are not shackled with debt.
In moments like this, I’m reminded of my grandfather. He was born in colonized Somalia, and was never afforded the opportunity to live in a democracy until he came to the United States.

Any relief package must:

•Make cash assistance universal and monthly
•Halt foreclosures *and* evictions
•Freeze all deportations
•Cancel student debt
•Pay for small business losses
•Bail out workers, not corporations

Here are some steps I have been taking to ensure this.
.@AyannaPressley and I led a letter calling for across the board student debt cancellation and immediate monthly payment relief to be included in the next package. 

No one should have to choose between paying off student loans and putting food on the table during this crisis.
I led a letter to @DHS_Wolf requesting a plan to prevent outbreak in detention facilities—and a halt to deportations, interior enforcement and immigration court proceedings to prevent the spread of the virus. theintercept.com/2020/03/20/sto…
