Milwaukee-area Muslims organized an interfaith gathering in Humboldt Park on Sunday. Their message was one of peace and cooperation, but Rizwan Ahmad of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community said he'd like more help from elected officials.
"One step at a time, we`ll get there. We`d love to see them as a Muslim ally, and support the Muslim community saying, we`re all citizens of this country and we need to come together instead of dividing everybody apart," Ahmad said.
Ahmad said his friend, a permanent U.S. resident, had delayed a trip to see his family in Morocco because of the executive order. Even though Morocco is not one of the seven affected countries, Ahmad said his friend "didn't want to take any chances."
