Political Power

NIAC works to build political power so that Iranian Americans and our allies have influence on the decisions made by our government and can advance our values through civic and political engagement.

By providing civic education, engaging our community in the policymaking and electoral processes, and organizing our resources through grassroots activism and political giving, NIAC is building a future in which our community’s values and interests are represented in Washington and felt across the country and globe.

Take Action

Demand Congress Protect Against Discrimination

In a disturbing trend, discriminatory state-level bills have been proposed and even passed to restrict the right of Iranian and other immigrants to purchase property based on their national heritage. Urge your Representative in Congress to cosponsor the Preemption of Real Property Discrimination Act (H.R. 3697) to prevent these discriminatory laws from taking effect.
