National UU the Vote Gathering - Building a New Way. Tuesday, July 30th at 8pm ET. This week's campaign announcement comes after weeks of consequential political events, and we know more will follow. These moments challenge our justice movements and demand our collective resilience. And yet, we are fortified in the truth that when our movements face the winds of change, it is love and not fear that guides us toward a liberated future. Throughout our history, the people have always been the keepers and the architects of a future where there is truly freedom and justice for all. We come together, again and again, to take prophetic action declaring that all bodies are sacred, that climate justice is a moral mandate, and we will build a democracy of, by and for ALL people. This election season is about us! Join UUs across the country next week for this special UU the Vote event where we will harness our power for what’s next. Register Here.
North Carolina Abortion Rights Interfaith Phone Bank. Join Side With Love, UU Justice NC, Pro-Choice North Carolina, and Carolina Jews for Justice for this three-part phonebank series calling North Carolina voters. The future of abortion access in North Carolina is on the line this election! Even though there isn't a ballot initiative, abortion is absolutely on the ballot in NC, because those we elect will either defend and advance abortion access, or keep banning it. People of faith are coming together to send a powerful message that reproductive rights are aligned with our values, so let's get on the phones and turn-out pro abortion voters this fall!
