New Michigan Senator Abdul El-Sayed:
Proud to represent Michigan in the Senate. Michigan is the capital of Arab America!
The suburb of Dearborn in Detroit is the Islamic capital of the USA, 55% are Muslim. There the construction of a mega-mosque ends. There is a district called the Matermic. Following the results of the local elections, the diaspora took all the seats in the council. The main street was changed to Palestine Street, and women were not allowed to attend the post-election reception. The court concluded that there was a huge glut of absentee ballots with forged signatures of newly naturalized immigrants.
The first Muslims (up to a thousand) appeared in Detroit because of the G. Ford factory, which accepted immigrants from all over the world for very low wages.
Turning Point - 1965: Democratic President Lyndon Johnson passed legislation that abolished national quotas on immigration to the US.
Johnson was a great supporter of Israel and the Jewish diaspora. One of the main lobbyists for the law is Emanuel Seller, a lawyer and member of the House of Representatives from Brooklyn and an active member and lobbyist for the diaspora.
