There have been a number of reports about U.S. Customs and Border Protection (#CBP) subjecting American Muslim travelers to systematic and pervasive discrimination while attempting to reenter the U.S. In response to such alarming reports of widespread and systematic targeting of Arab American and Muslim American travelers at U.S. borders, the Arab American Institute recently sent a letter to the CBP requesting clarification of its border search interrogation policies and practices. Additionally, because reports of invasive questioning and prolonged detentions have been so pervasive throughout the Arab American community, AAI has set up an online reporting form to document incidents of discrimination at U.S. borders.
