Rashida Tlaib: “It is devastating when they do get those letters.”

To all our Dearborn families and residents: I have your back. I wish I could take away this pain, but know that you are not alone.

Dearborn is a beautifully diverse place, home to a vibrant, loving Muslim community, and our families do not deserve to be subjected to such hate and bigotry.

More leaders, including local elected officials, must speak out, especially against the local instigators participating in the spread of hatred under the guise of faith.

Our families do not deserve to be subjected to such hate and bigotry.
