Americans living in all 50 States.

 Elections
and Arab Americans
The Arab American Institute
is committed to fostering strong relations between the Arab American
constituency and elected officials. AAI organizes community events, outreach
programs, voter registration drives, and get out the vote campaigns. We work to

local and national levels in an effort to increase Arab American representation.
