On Principles & Values: Lifts order blocking Muslim burial for humanitarian reasons

Meyer is temporarily lifting a cease-and-desist order for the first Islamic cemetery in Delaware. The move clears the way for burying an infant. "There is no Muslim cemetery in the state of Delaware right now," Meyer said. "It has been a valid concern of the Muslim community for an extended period of time." Meyer said he's lifting the cease-and-desist order for "humanitarian reasons," on condition the traffic concerns will be addressed. Source: WHYY (NPR) on 2024 Delaware Gubernatorial race Mar 4, 2020
