We believe in the rule of law 

The right to vote is the bedrock of American democracy. Across our many faith traditions, we are united in our defense of a pluralistic democracy. We are alarmed at attempts to undermine faith in elections and voting rights.

We are partnering with a wide range of religious and civic organizations to expose the authoritarian threat of Project 2025 and the Trump-Vance administration’s attempt to implement the policies within it. Authoritarians use religion to justify trampling on the rule of law. Christian nationalism draws on centuries of exclusionary rhetoric and violence, but we refuse to cede religious or moral ground to extremists who would privilege a small segment of Christians above all other Americans.

Leah Greenberg, Indivisible, and No Kings: "You do not need permission to get started"

This week on The State of Belief – getting ready for ⁠No Kings Day⁠ on June 14th, an initiative of the national grassroots organization ⁠Indivisible⁠. Co-founder Leah Greenberg explains that No Kings Day is a forceful nationwide response to the royal pretensions on display in Donald Trump's demand for a multi-million dollar military parade on his 79th birthday. Leah joins Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush to discuss the importance of getting involved rather than discouraged, share past Indivisible successes and lessons learned, and the essential role faith leaders and communities play in giving credibility to public actions like this.
