9/28 Town Hall: The Violation of the Rights of Arab Americans by Israel’s Entry into the Visa Waiver Program with Jim Zogby

Thursday, September 28, 5:30 PM EDT

Join Jim Zogby and other Arab American leaders and partner organizations, as well as directly impacted people who have faced discrimination at the border. Strategies for congressional oversight and possible legal challenges will be discussed.

Joining will be Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD). His leadership on this issue has been critical throughout the process, always emphasizing that the equal treatment of all Americans is central to the basic requirements of the Visa Waiver Program.

In addition to Senator Van Hollen, Jim will be joined by AAI Executive Director Maya Berry, and we will hear from AAI Board of Governors Member Eddie Ayoob; Executive Director of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Abed Ayoub; Arab American writer and advocate living in Ramallah, Sam Bahour; and the Past President of the American Federation of Ramallah, Palestine, Hanna Hanania.
