HinduPACT’s HinduVote Project Congratulates Donald J. Trump on his Election as the 47th President of the United States of America
Sugar Grove, IL, November 13 :
HinduPACT’s HinduVote Project extends congratulations to President-elect Donald J. Trump on his election as the 47th President of the United States of America. We celebrate the democratic process, reflecting people's will and upholding our nation's foundational principles.
We express our sincere gratitude to Vice President Kamala Harris for graciously accepting the verdict and upholding the principles of the democratic process. The commitment to a peaceful transition of power reinforces the strength of our democracy and sets a commendable example for all Americans.
As we look forward to the future, we remind President-elect Trump of his promise to take immediate action to stop the persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh. We ask the President-elect to preserve the First Amendment rights of Hindus by sending a firm message to radical elements and to safeguard Hindus and their places of worship within the United States and abroad. The American Hindu community remains deeply concerned about the persecution, and we urge the incoming administration to address them with urgency and diligence.
The attention of the 47th President to the American Hindu Agenda 2024 is essential to the success and well-being of our community. This agenda outlines critical matters affecting American Hindus, including:
Protection of Religious Freedoms: Ensuring the rights of Hindus to practice their faith freely and without fear.
Combating Hate Crimes: Implementing policies to prevent and respond to acts of violence and discrimination against the Hindu community.
International Human Rights: Advocating for Hindus facing persecution in countries like Bangladesh and supporting global human rights initiatives.
Fair and Merit-Based Admissions and Employment Opportunities: Advocating for admissions in educational institutions and employment opportunities to be based on merit, ensuring fairness and equal opportunity for all. We support the Supreme Court’s decision in the Harvard v. Students for Fair Admissions case, emphasizing the importance of meritocracy and equal treatment under the law. We encourage the incoming administration to uphold these principles and ensure that policies reflect a commitment to merit, fairness, and equality.
We are eager to collaborate with President-elect Trump’s administration and request a meeting with his appointed officials to discuss these critical issues. We aim to create policies that reflect the values of inclusivity, justice, and mutual respect.
