Muslim Advocates Denounces Donald Trump Comments Calling for National Registry of American Muslims

It is simply unconscionable that Donald Trump would call for a forced national registration of American Muslims in the United States. Such an action is not only illegal under our Constitution, it would violate our nation’s most sacred values and repeat the deplorable practices of Nazi Germany.

Now is the time for our leaders to unite Americans under our ideals of freedom, justice and equality under law. We call on all Americans of good faith to reject the frightful and hateful ideas Mr. Trump has espoused.
