The group Arab Americans for Trump is renaming itself Arab Americans for Peace after President Donald Trump said the U.S. would “take over” the Gaza Strip.

Summary

Arab Americans for Trump, a key voter outreach group, has rebranded as Arab Americans for Peace following Trump’s comments about the U.S. “taking over” Gaza.

Chairman Bishara Bahbah stated the group opposes any forced relocation of Palestinians and wants to emphasize peace.

The group played a major role in Trump’s 2024 election outreach, particularly in swing states like Michigan and Arizona.

While they appreciate Trump’s commitment to rebuilding Gaza, they reject the idea of U.S. control over the territory and its inhabitants.
