.@bah_omar said Trump calling Somalis “garbage” is “the newest signal of degeneration of Trump and his administration into infantile but dangerous rhetoric that is both racist and a threat to the safety of certain populations in this country.” bostonglobe.com/2025/12/03/met…

RI refugee advocates decry National Guard shooting and Trump immigration crackdown. “We do not agree with Trump taking these drastic & erratic actions because of a single incident that does not represent the refugee and immigrant community” @bah_omar said bostonglobe.com/2025/12/03/met…

.@RefugeeDream works tirelessly to help refugees create community and connect families and children with needed supports. Their work is vital to #RI and we were honored to present their founder and Exec Dir with the 1st 2025 @RIKidsCount #RIFactbook. 👏🏾👏🏾

There is no place for violence in our politics. We wish former President Trump a speedy recovery. God bless America.

The Center, which is over a decade old, has a young staff complement of 28 and receives refugees from all over the world. Mr. Bah is a young, smart, and ambitious man whose Center substantially positively impacts the lives of many refugees in the US.

Rhode Island was founded as a refuge from persecution, and that’s still true today. I’m grateful to the @RefugeeDream Center for continuing that work by helping refugees start a new life in RI. It was great to meet some of the families at today’s festival!

Great time attending the RI Foundation's annual event tonight. And congrats @NeilDSteinberg on your retirement. Your contribution to the progress of Rhode Island’s many diverse communities is deeply appreciated. I wish you all the best.

Great to run into ⁦@bah_omar⁩ at ⁦@myrwu⁩ this morning. He was part of ⁦@spjr1c⁩ panel on reporting on immigration
