All representatives for national, state and local Muslim organizations and communities are encouraged to register for this two-day advocacy event. Muslim delegates and activists will discuss the most pressing issues affecting Muslim Americans in today's climate with congressional offices. For those who would like additional advocacy techniques and a more in-depth rundown on the advocacy day's focused issues, there will be a series of online training seminars for those registered before the day itself. Last year's event was attended by more than 450 delegates from 30 states who met with nearly 230 congressional offices.
