The Biden campaign did not reply to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.
The resistance to Biden’s re-election stems mainly from the president’s handling of Israel’s war in Gaza, a response to the Oct. 7 attack on the Jewish State by Hamas, a terrorist group that enjoys financial and material support from Iran.
However, many activists in Dearborn, a city with the highest per capita Muslim population in the country, have been vocal opponents of Israeli tactics since the beginning of the war.
Zeidan, who is now serving as the spokesperson for the national "Uncommitted Movement," also pins a lot of the blame for those tactics on Biden, arguing that the president has been allowed to "take our tax dollars to fund a genocide."
"For too long you've had people being presented with the option of the lesser of two evils. I think what you're seeing is a wave of young voters and diverse groups of voters and anti-war voters that are saying 'we're no longer settling for this option[.]'"
The Michigan-based activist argued that Biden had the "power to pick up the phone at the very onset" of Israel’s campaign to "ensure that there was a permanent ceasefire to save lives on both sides."
"Instead, he continued to provide munitions and aid to a very right-wing fascist government that was literally committing war crimes," Zeidan said.
Zeidan said that the movement is spreading from Dearborn to other key swing states such as Wisconsin, battlegrounds that promise to have an outsized role in determining the fate of this year’s election.

Zeidan said that message is especially aimed at the Democratic Party, which she said she believes will not be able to win elections simply by claiming to be better than the alternative.
"We no longer are going to spend time, money, effort, organizing behind elected officials or presidents who don’t believe in this anti-war, pro-peace, pro-Palestinian view," Zeidan said.
