Description:

2020 Civic Engagement Campaign Every Voice, Every Vote. Help us to reach 100 percent voter turnout within Reform Jewish communities and fight voter suppression nationwide. RAC in Your State Our state-based affiliates in California, Illinois, Florida, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas build power, mobilize congregations and engage the Reform Jewish community nationwide in the pursuit of justice. Racial Justice The Reform Movement works in partnership with representatives from diverse communities to fight the structural racism that is embedded in our society and to advance justice for all people. Don t Stay Silent As Reform Jews, we cannot afford to stay silent on gun violence. Join the Movement, led by NFTY - the Reform Jewish Youth Movement - to demand action to prevent gun violence. As the world grapples with the novel coronavirus, we are witnessing just the beginning of the most severe public health and economic crisis in decades. Our call to Congress and the administration during this crisis continues to be: protect all people, and put those most vulnerable at the center. Urge Congress to support the most vulnerable communities during the COVID-19 pandemic. As we witness protests in Minneapolis, Louisville, and across the United States we see an all-too-familiar anger, frustration, and pain. Changes to federal laws are vital to ensure that law enforcement training, use of force policies, and data collection address historic and systemic racial injustices. Urge your members of Congress to pass police reform legislation. Thanks for subscribing. Please check your inbox to confirm your newsletter subscription.

We want to empower you to get involved and grow your leadership skills! The RAC hosts a wide variety of programs, conferences and events focusing on social justice, direct service, or legislative and policy action. From high school students to rabbis, you can find something for everyone here! Rabbi Everett Gendler is known for his involvement in progressive causes, including the civil rights Today, the URJ and CCAR joined with the Conservative and Reconstructionist Movements to issue a statement affirming our historic and ongoing close partnership with the ADL and our commitment to continuing to work in broad coalitions across lines of faith and race to heal what is broken in our world. “We are chilled and outraged by recent reports detailing the detention of children in hotels, lacking access to proper care, in danger of abuse and predation, and expelled from the US without due process and in circumvention of international and domestic asylum laws." The W.K. Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek, Michigan awarded the URJ a $600,000 multi-year grant to advance Racial Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (REDI) within the URJ and the Reform Jewish Movement as a whole.
