CAIR-Chicago, the Mosque Foundation, and the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and refugee rights (ICIRR) joined forces this year to promote voter participation in the upcoming election through a fellowship program entitled the New American Democracy Project (NADP).

Come and join us in the Launch of a National Campaign to register and mobilize Immigrant Voters in order to win full citizenship for immigrants in the U.S.

CAIR-Chicago volunteers knocked on close to 150 doors in the third congressional district to encourage registered voters to go to the polls on Tuesday, March 21, 2006.

The Illinois primary election is TODAY! That’s right, Election Day is here and CAIR-Chicago volunteers have made nearly 800 phone calls to registered Muslim voters to cast their ballots.

CAIR-Chicago’s Governmental Relations Department has been conducting an active Get Out the Vote Campaign.

The last day to register to vote for the primary elections is February 20, 2006. As part of a non-partisan political mobilization effort, the CAIR-Chicago team will be at the Mosque Foundation registering voters during Friday Prayer this week.

Nationwide, leaders say Muslim Americans have been registering to vote in unprecedented numbers.
