The outcome of the 2016 presidential election strengthens ICNY’s resolve to overcome bigotry, prejudice, and violence – working with and for New York’s grassroots religious and civic leaders in the weeks, months, and years ahead. We stand proudly with Muslim New Yorkers and other religious minorities who contribute so much to our shared city and nation. As we fought the attempts of candidate Trump to marginalize immigrants and religious minorities, so will we continue to do so throughout his presidency. Grounded in First Amendment principles and shared religious values, we will strive to make New York and the world safe for religious diversity.
