To be one of the first Muslim women in Congress on this #InternationalWomensDay is so special. I’m celebrating the women who paved the way and committing to fight for a #BalanceforBetter. That includes #equalpay and access to #healthcare for women everywhere.
Our climate crisis needs urgent attention, I am grateful for these young organizers and look forward to joining them on the 15th of March! Hope to see a huge showing of Congressional leaders.

HR1 will:
- Make it easier to vote
- End big money in politics
- Ensure public officials work for the public interest
We’re going to change Washington #ForThePeople!
It’s also not lost on me that today is #InternationalWomensDay. What better way to celebrate than to join the first female Speaker of the House and a record number of women in Congress to restore our democracy?
Today, I have the honor to vote with the likes of John Lewis—a man who put his life on the line for voting rights— to strengthen that democracy
On this day 24 years ago, my family arrived in the United States of America, a land of democracy and opportunity
