UU the Vote

UU the Vote

"UU the Vote" is the UUA's campaign to encourage UUs and UU congregations all across the United States to get involved in voter registration and get out the vote activities during 2020.

The stakes couldn’t be higher in the 2020 elections. All our values, our work for justice, the communities we love and the beloved community we seek to create are under attack. Our religious community must speak with moral courage and act with prophetic clarity and determination in the 2020 electoral cycle. Our UU values of interdependence, democracy, and the inherent worth and dignity of all people are direct antidotes to the fear, bigotry, and inequity that define our world. In this political moment, UUs are called to join forces with all people who want to organize our communities and our nation.

The UUA's national UUtheVote Team will be hosting a nation-wide Zoom call on Sunday, January 12, 2020 at 4:00 pm (EST) to officially launch UU the Vote and encourages UU congregations and North Carolina UUs to participate in groups at their congregations, at house parties, and on-line together.
