"Biden's Gaza Policy Faces Test in Michigan Primary"

Arab American activists in Michigan are urging voters to cast ballots as "uncommitted" in protest of President Joe Biden's support for Israel's war in Gaza, signaling their anger and sending a warning to Democrats in the critical swing state. Michigan's large Arab American community, which helped deliver the state to Biden in 2020, is now expressing discontent over his stance on Gaza, with some citing it as a factor in his declining support. The "Listen to Michigan" campaign, endorsed by progressive organizations, aims to encourage uncommitted votes in support of a Gaza ceasefire, potentially posing trouble for Biden in the fall if Arab Americans and their allies stay home or vote for Trump. Biden's outreach to the Arab American community has been criticized, and some activists argue that a second Trump presidency would be the result of Biden's failure to address their concerns.
