American Muslims and other Americans are confronting increasing challenges to their religious liberty—from discriminatory policies and institutional practices that restrict the free exercise of faith to social hostility that undermines the very essence of religious expression.

In various settings such as schools, workplaces, and government institutions, these threats manifest in barriers such as discrimination against Muslim women wearing hijabs and attempt to ban Muslim communities from establishing mosques.

CAIR stands at the forefront of defending these essential rights through strategic litigation, policy advocacy, and community outreach. By challenging unconstitutional practices and promoting inclusive policies, CAIR is committed to ensuring that every American can enjoy the freedom to express and practice their religion without fear of discrimination or persecution.
