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.
