My name is Ahmed Moor
and I'm fed up, just like you are.
I grew up in Philadelphia, but was born in Gaza, Palestine.
The America that welcomed my family wasn’t perfect, but it was a land of opportunity. It gave me a great education and a career in journalism and public policy. It’s where I bought a home in the heart of West Philly with my wife and three kids.
A few years ago my birthplace was turned to rubble in a genocide funded by our tax dollars, with the support of politicians on both sides of the aisle who can't find money for healthcare, transit, or removing asbestos from our schools.
It's the same story now in Iran. We’ve spent $90 billion on a war no American wants, driving up the price of diesel and making our groceries more expensive.
It’s clear the United States funds wars based on corruption and lies and has turned its back on its own people. We must make sure this never happens again.
That’s why I’m running for U.S. Senate.

Wars are just one of their many betrayals.
Family members abducted in the night by secret police. Citizens gunned down in the streets by their own government. Illness caused by polluted air and tainted food. Healthcare claims denied to pay for executive bonuses. Evictions and layoffs while schools and roads and parks decay, so corporations don’t have to pay taxes on their record profits.
America is getting sicker and poorer. They try to tell you otherwise, but you live it and you know it. So many young people are choosing not to start families because they’ve lost faith in the future.
This is a crisis, and both parties share the blame. But we can still fight back.
We’ve grown wiser to how they distract and divide us. We’re learning to reject the false choices the party machine sells us and to demand real representation in the halls of Congress. There is hope.
Unless we end the corruption now and hold them all accountable for their crimes, my children will never know an America of opportunity.
I don't have money on my side, but I do have people. Our power still means something even if it's slipping away.
If you want to join the fight with me, please add your name below.
What this campaign is about.
Over the next year I will publish more detailed policy ideas as I travel the state to both share and learn in living rooms, churches and union halls.
We might not agree on every issue, but we will agree that the job of a U.S. Senator is to protect the rule of law and serve the common good, putting America and people first.
This campaign runs on people.
Tell us a little about yourself and we'll get you plugged in where you can do the most good.
