PAKPAC Congratulates
Congressman

Andre Carson

The Pakistani-American Public Affairs Committee congratulates Congressman Andre Carson on winning the Democratic Primary from Indiana with a comfortable victory.  Congressman Carson became the 2nd Muslim to become a Congressman in the history of United States.  

The Pakistani-American Public Affairs Committee was the first PAC and organization to officially endorse and support his candidacy and do a fundraiser and support him.  

The Pakistani-American Public Affairs Committee asks all the fellow community members across the country to help support the candidacy of Congressman Carson.  This is based on our assessment and discussion with people from Indiana , who believe that he is the best candidate to represent them and have been in touch with PAKPAC to help support his candidacy from the very beginning. 

PAKPAC in turns requests other organizations to show their support and have him be a member and present in all community events and meetings

Pakistani American Public Affairs Committee asks the Pakistani American community organizations leadership to develop strategies for better organizing itself. Time has come and past for us to be organized. We need to wait no longer. There is a nee to develop mechanisms for a nationwide coordination. We need to organize our organizations. This can occurs as a Federation of Pakistani Americans Groups or a set up of Nor Resident Pakistanis group. The model of everyone doing everything is not sustainable.
