Join us in taking action

We recognize the threats of authoritarian theocracy and Christian nationalism, and know mainstream religious Americans reject these ideologies. Too often, the loudest voices don’t represent the inclusive majority, so we must speak out to make sure our voices are heard in policy debates.

End the Federal Occupation of Washington, D.C.

End the Federal Occupation of Washington, D.C.

President Trump has given himself emergency powers to take control of Washington, DC. Since Section 740 of the D.C. Home Rule Act was invoked, homeless encampments have been forcibly cleared. ICE is detaining residents. Military-style checkpoints have been established, targeting vulnerable communities and disrupting daily life.

Tell Trump: Stop Attacking Faith Communities

In its first weeks, the Trump administration launched some of the most dangerous and unprecedented attacks on religious communities we've seen in modern American history.

Tell Your Members of Congress: Vote to keep Trump’s raids out of houses of worship.

One of Trump's first actions changed these rules – allowing ICE and CPB officers to barge into sanctuaries to make arrests.

Tell Your Members of Congress: Co-Sponsor the Equality Act!

Every one of us should be able to live free from discrimination. Unfortunately, Christian nationalists and their allies are waging an all-out war against our LGBTQ+ siblings, weaponizing faith as a license to discriminate. Tell your Members of Congress: Co-sponsor the Equality Act. Together, we can make our vision of an inclusive democracy a reality.

Moral Courage in Action: Faith Communities Confront Executive Overreach

This June, the Trump administration deployed the National Guard to California following widespread protests against a series of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids across the city; protesters stood in solidarity with immigrant communities and voiced opposition to mass deportation. Executive overreach under the guise of making communities “safer” threatens the freedom and safety of protesters and distorts democratic norms. In August, the administration further displayed overreach by deploying National Guard troops and quelling protests in Washington, D.C. In September, the administration announced that Portland, Oregon, would be the next city to have troops mobilized in its community. In response, faith communities, along with their partners, have not relented and are pushing back in defense of immigrant rights and the integrity of our democracy.
