Progressive and Arab American groups in Michigan are urging voters to select 'uncommitted' in the Democratic primary, signaling a protest against President Biden's stance on the Israel-Hamas conflict.

  • Michigan's Arab American and progressive groups are rallying voters to choose 'uncommitted' in the Democratic primary as a protest against Biden's handling of the Israel-Hamas war.
  • The 'Listen to Michigan' campaign aims to demonstrate electoral power by encouraging at least 11,000 voters to select 'uncommitted', reflecting discontent with Biden's Gaza policy.
  • Activists express deep frustration with Biden, with some calling for his resignation over his steadfast support for Israel and rejection of a long-term ceasefire.
  • Our Revolution and other progressive organizations join the effort, seeking to pressure the Biden administration for a more immediate ceasefire and accountability in Gaza.
  • Despite the protest, the Biden campaign remains hopeful of expanding its coalition in Michigan before the November elections, emphasizing the importance of every demographic, including Arab American voters.
