(Houston Chronicle) Three top Muslim advocacy organizations are hosting a presidential candidate forum Aug. 31 in Houston as part of the annual Islamic Society of North America convention.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and former U.S. housing secretary Julián Castro have confirmed their attendance. The groups have invited other “top leading” Democratic presidential candidates, as well as President Donald Trump, according to a news release set to go out Monday.
The forum will take place at the George R. Brown Convention Center, the site of the annual ISNA event. Candidates will take part in one-on-one moderated sessions, a similar format to prior presidential forums in Houston focused on women of color and education.
