Happy Election Day! We’ve traveled more than 1,600 miles on The Vote is Sacred Tour and arrived at our final destination: Philadelphia. From the minute we arrived in Omaha, Nebraska, 9 days ago, we’ve felt a powerful energy resonating across diverse religious communities.
We wrapped up the tour with a block party in Philadelphia in partnership with Episcopal Community Services. We had face painting, food, and music at the corner of 60th st and Girard Ave to make one final push to get out the vote.
In addition to the tour stops, we’ve had the opportunity to share important messages from the road. Our president and CEO Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush recorded a message about the need to vote for reproductive freedom as an expression of religious freedom. And we got some help from Academy Award-winning actress Laura Dern. She shared our message about reproductive freedom with her more than 1 million Instagram followers.
