Every Voice, Every Vote: Engaging in the Jewish tradition of civic engagement
The Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism (RAC) has launched a campaign—Every Voice, Every Vote—in partnership with the Center for Common Ground to increase voter participation from BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) communities across Texas.
If you want to help, order postcard packets between July 18-31, 2024 (Texas postcards will only be available until July 31). Each kit will include instructions, a sample script, voter addresses, and 30 postcards. Order as many kits as you would like. You will need to supply the postage. (There is a suggested donation amount to cover the cost, but any donation you are comfortable with is welcome.)
The Texas postcards are for the general election and will be mailed in October. More information on the campaign is available on the RAC website.
