The Dearborn-based Moztec Human Rights Council said in a statement that it is "deeply concerned" that Whitmer's visit to Israel will be "perceived as acquiescence, if not approval of U.S. abandonment of its longtime policy and of Israeli repressive policies."

"For the sake of advancing justice and peace, we urge Gov. Whitmer to consider the impact of her visit on Palestinians in Palestine and on Arab and Muslim Americans in Michigan" added Imad Hamad, the council's executive director.

Sufian Nabhan, director of the Islamic Center of Detroit, said he was "stunned" by Whitmer's decision to visit Israel after the Muslim community supported Whitmer in 2018. Her administration hired a number of Arab Americans, he added.

"We thought we had a mutual good relationship with her," Nabhan said.

On Thursday, representatives from the Arab American Civil Rights League, New Generation for Palestine, Arab American Political Action Committee and the Council on American-Islamic Relations also spoke out against the governor’s trip.

The groups held a press conference in Dearborn, where Osama Siblani, publisher of the Arab American News, and Amer Zahr, a Palestinian-American comedian and University of Detroit Mercy law professor, said they wished the community was consulted and could have expressed their concerns.

"The timing of the governor’s trip could not be worse," Zahr said, reading from a statement.

The trip is happening at the invitation of the Israeli government and hosted by the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit. The Jewish Federation didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment.
