Amer Ghalib
Amer Ghalib (Arabic: عامر غالب, AHM-ir GAHL-ib; born 1979) is an American politician who served as the mayor of Hamtramck, Michigan from 2022 until 2026. A conservative Democrat, he was the first Arab American and the first Muslim to hold the office. Ghalib gained national attention as mayor for implementing an ordinance banning the pride flag from display on city property, divesting from investment in Israel, and for supporting Donald Trump in the 2024 United States presidential election. In March 2025, Trump named Ghalib as his nominee for United States ambassador to Kuwait, but his nomination stalled after bipartisan criticism of past statements he made. Starting in 2026, Ghalib has served as the senior advisor for strategic partnerships at AmeriCorps.
