Instead of Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan, the American Muslim Community Centers (AMCC) organization in Florida has dropped the word "again" and is spreading a message of acceptance for the Muslim-American community.

The sign, using a similar font and design as Trump's campaign materials, advocates "Making America Great with love, compassion, and mercy."

AMCC, which paid for the billboards on two Florida highways, told CNN reporters that the signs are way to remind the community that Muslim-Americans care about their fellow Americans.

The Why Islam project has been running billboard campaigns for many years, according to its site. The ads, featuring their 24/7 hotline number and website, have been plastered on highways across the country, as one of many methods to spread word about the religion.

The signs come after Trump has come down hard on Muslims during his campaign and into his first week as president.

While campaigning Trump championed the idea of a Muslim registry. On Friday, he signed an executive action limiting the flow of refugees and implementing "new vetting measures" that he says are aimed at keeping "radical Islamic terrorists" out of the United States.
