The Vote is Sacred Tour is off and running! We launched the tour on Monday at the Tri-Faith Initiative in Omaha, Nebraska. It was the perfect launching pad for the tour because Tri-Faith brings together a mosque, synagogue, church, and interfaith center on one campus.

We heard from diverse religious leaders in the community: Rev. Sarah Rentzel Jones of Countryside Community Church, Rabbi Deana Sussman Berezin of Temple Israel, Rev. Debra McKnight of Urban Abbey United Methodist Church, Karim Khayati of the American Muslim Institute (AMI). Rick MacInnes, chair of the Tri-Faith Board, and Bob Freeman, a co-founder of Tri-Faith, also spoke.

Interfaith Alliance President and CEO Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush delivered a powerful call to action to protect democracy and rallied diverse faith communities to turn out in this critical location in the 2024 election.

You can watch an in-depth report on the tour kickoff by the local ABC News affiliate:
