9/18 – The Jewish Response to Pursue Justice

September 18, 2024

1pm ET

Zoom

Price: -

RSVP: Keshet

The more we unite to share our Jewish values far and wide, the more we will succeed this November. That’s why Keshet is partnering with the Religious Action Center to discuss the strategy of Jewish institutions and community members to move the needle this election season. The Religious Right is strategic in its attacks on our rights; we must band together to make a coordinated effort against this.

Certain politicians are pushing a narrative in hopes of leading voters to see LGBTQ+ equality as a direct threat to their rights or the safety of their communities; they feel it to be a moral issue to oppose our civil liberties. That is why understanding the strategy of the Religious Right is essential not only for defeating anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in state legislatures but also for navigating the 2024 election. 

Candidates will undoubtedly use our rights as political bargaining chips in an attempt to win over extremist factions in November. They forget what we know is true: anti-LGBTQ+ policies are wildly unpopular and do not represent the electorate’s values. As people of faith, we must meet this moment with our narrative: religion and LGBTQ+ equality are not incompatible. Because of our Jewish values, we will go to the polls and vote with our consciences and clarity.
