From early setbacks on Gaza policy, the 2024 uncommitted movement pivoted to power-building, mobilizing Arab American voters to influence Democratic primaries and back candidates like Abbas Alawieh and Abdul El-Sayed. By forging alliances with Emgage Action and the Working Families Party, and concentrating outreach in Michigan’s Arab communities, organizers demonstrated that Arab and Muslim voters can drive progressive wins by tying Gaza concerns to domestic issues such as healthcare and housing.
