ACT for America, founded in 2007, is a U.S.-based anti-Muslim[1][2][3][4] advocacy group that opposes what it calls "the threat of radical Islam" to Americans.[5]
Critics of the group, including the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Center for American Progress, describe it as a hate group. It has been called the U.S.'s largest anti-Muslim organization.[2][6] Since 2017, the group has organized rallies in support of Donald Trump.[7][8]
