Last night, Interfaith Alliance hosted our National Faith Mobilization Call with MoveOn, Indivisible, Horizons Project, Emgage, Bend the Arc, Kairos Center and Faith In Action. Our conversation was so powerful, full of spirit, wisdom and even love – it left us feeling energized and inspired to take action together.
Faith communities of every kind have a pivotal role to play in this critical moment for our democracy and fundamental rights. We encourage you to find a Hands Off! rally near you, explore the resources shared by our partners, and watch the webinar below.

Texas Faith Communities Fight Against Mandated Ten Commandment Displays
Texans of all faiths are uniting in filing a lawsuit against Senate Bill No. 10 (S.B. 10), which requires Texas public school classrooms to display the Ten Commandments.

Faith leaders have an important role in fighting hate speech
Recently, the Sure Foundation Baptist Church (SFBC) in Indianapolis held a sermon in which the preacher called for the government to institute the death penalty for the LGBTQ+ community.
