The Gaza Impact: Understand the Law

The events unfolding in and around Gaza have far-reaching consequences that impact us all. Many American Muslims and their allies share a common concern: the fear of being targeted if they raise their voices against injustice. This fear extends to their hesitancy in providing aid to those suffering, making donations to help victims in the region, and their worry about facing discriminatory treatment when traveling to reunite with loved ones or conduct business in the area.

With two decades of experience, we understand these reasonable apprehensions. Our team of expert lawyers can help address these concerns effectively, the first step is understanding the law.

In the coming weeks, MLFA will be hosting a town hall event and an educational video series to provide answers to your questions. We invite you to join us in this important conversation.
