CAIR Good News Alert: CAIR Research and Advocacy Department Secures Full Apology for NH Muslims Served Pork

ACTION REQUESTED: If you, or anyone you know, has been subjected to discrimination, please file a report athttps://www.cair.com/report/

New Hampshire – The CAIR Research and Advocacy Department secured a full apology for a Muslim family negligently served pork at a well-established New England restaurant chain. The family asked staff whether a particular food item contained pork. The staff dismissed the family’s inquiries three different times and simply told them the items did not contain pork to end their inquiries. Unfortunately, the family discovered the items contained pork upon eating them. The family reported this matter to CAIR, and CAIR wrote a letter to the restaurant chain’s senior management. Management has since apologized to the family and will revisit the training they offer to their staff per CAIR’s insistence.
