Purpose
The Muslim American Executive Selection Committee seeks to identify and recommend qualified Muslim Americans to serve in a Biden administration. Our goal is to increase the number of Muslim Americans serving in government at all levels.
Historically, minority communities have been underrepresented in government agencies. Emgage PAC is working to identify and nominate members of our community who are interested in joining the next U.S. administration by launching a Muslim Talent Project program. The new project aims to streamline the process for Muslim Americans interested in serving our nation at all levels of government.
Eligibility
Applicants must be U.S. citizens. While we cannot guarantee placement, we will make every effort towards ensuring the Biden Transition team considers as many qualified American Muslim candidates as possible. We encourage individuals from a broad range of backgrounds and interests to apply. Position experience requirements range from junior to mid-level to senior level.

such opportunities to serve and to succeed.”

need to also be the people inside of the halls of power calling the
shots. Both types of change makers are required in a healthy democracy,
and we have let ourselves be relegated to the outside for too long.”
