Since the beginning of 2021, the Iranian Americans for Liberty (IAL) have organized virtual Congressional Meet and Greets with Members of Congress (MOC’s) to inform and educate the Iranian American community about the domestic and foreign policy positions of their elected officials around the country. All of these events have been for educational purposes and we have never made any recommendations on policy or specific pieces of legislation.

The Iranian American community says thank you to Representative Jeff Van Drew, Representative Yvette Herrell, Representative Maria Salazar, Representative Mike Garcia, Representative James Hagedorn, Representative Andrew Garbarino, Representative Ashley Hinson, Representative Michelle Fischbach and Representative Claudia Tenney for attending our virtual Congressional Meet and Greet events.
The members we’ve hosted currently serve on the following committees: House Foreign Affairs, House Homeland Security, House Judiciary, House Small Business, House Veterans Affairs, House Appropriations, House Budget, House Agriculture, House Administration and House Oversight and Reform.
“Through actions and in words, these nine MOC’s have shown the Iranian American community they are engaged in the issues that are important to Iranian Americans. During all of our virtual events, these MOC’s have thanked the Iranian American community for their contributions to American society. We are thankful to each of these MOC’s for their unwavering support of the Iranian American community.” said Bryan E. Leib, Executive Director
