Join Us for Muslim Day at the Capitol
Muslim Day at the Capitol (MDAC) is the nation’s largest Muslim civic engagement event. It provides an opportunity for participants to:
- Speak with assembly members and state senators.
- Discuss issues impacting them and their communities.
- Attend town halls.
- Participate in political advocacy.
In 2023, over 400 community members throughout California gathered at the state capitol, where they played a pivotal role in influencing policies that affect all Californians. MDAC attendees lobbied for progressive policies that support justice and equality, including protecting the right to religious accommodations in correction facilities, allowing excused absences from school and work for religious holidays, and expanding opportunities for all.
We will be scheduling in-person meetings with elected officials. Registered attendees will be placed in groups based on their region, and each group will be scheduled to meet with at least one elected official. We will also host town halls and workshops.
Registration is required to attend. Deadline to register: Monday, April 22, 2024, at 11:59 pm
Cost (includes materials, training, and meals):
- $30 per adult
