They also suffer continuous affronts coming from certain politicians who have adopted a negative approach to Muslims in America, like presidential hopeful Herman Cain and Congressmen Allen West and Peter King. They too fall victim to Islamophobic discourse carried out by known bigots like Pamela Geller, Joe Kaufman and Robert Spencer, who devote full-time efforts to demeaning Islam and belittling the American Muslim community. When it comes to Latino Muslim acceptance in the American landscape, they are not exempt from experiencing challenges and struggles confronted by the broader American Muslim community. Also, the Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR) South Florida Chapter's 'CAIR en Español' project aims to provide advocacy services for Latino Muslims in pursuit of their civil liberties.

Such is the case of the American Muslim Association of North America (AMANA), which has distributed more than 20,000 Spanish translations of the Quran and opened a Spanish educational materials distribution branch in Puerto Rico. In past years, other existing organizations have gradually grown to provide significant space for Latino Muslims. Such is the case of Nahela Alexandra Morales, a Mexican who works in the Islamic Council of North America's 'Why Islam?' project, where she assists in the national and international assemblage and distribution of educational materials in Spanish. Various established organizations now included Latino Muslims in their staff. Another active organization is the Latin American Da'wah Organization (LADO) whose director, Mexican-American Juan Galván, leads its educational efforts. This explains the advent of various Latino Islamic organizations such as 'Islam in Spanish,' whose managing coordinator, Abdullah Danny Hernandez, is a Puerto Rican who studied at Al Azhar University in Egypt. Part and parcel of the growing Latino movement to embrace Islam is the burgeoning need to cater to this community in Spanish, its native tongue. Another Muslim American phenomenon is the surge in Muslim organizations founded and operated by Latino Muslims, or in which Latinos play a significant role.
