As many of you might have already heard by now, the great state of Hawaii passed a resolution on Wednesday May 6th declaring September 24th “Islam Day” in their home state. This is incredible news and something we should make sure to thank the Senators and Representatives who voted in favor of HCR100. I’ve provided a link to the resolution itself for you to read at leisure. I’m sure you will agree that the resolution definitely puts a smile on your face and makes you wish you lived in Hawaii, for more than just the obvious reasons;) So please, make it a priority to email and call the list of Senators and Representatives expressing to them your gratitude and appreciation for doing the right thing. I’ve heard that many of the Senators have been barraged with emails/calls from people who adamantly oppose the resolution (which doesn’t surprise me). Therefore, your immediate show of support is timely. Thank you and please feel free to pass this information along to others.
