“According to the generation, so goes the leader.”
–Talmud Bavli, Arakhin 7A
On November 2, millions across the U.S. will go to the polls. We will elect 435 members of the House of Representatives, 47 United States Senators, 37 governors, and thousands of state representatives. A lot is on the line.
But this year, we must do more. To get the maximum number of people in the voting booths, we are calling on Pursuers to register new voters and help people get to the polls.
In 2008, thousands of Pursuers in six cities participated in presidential debate watching parties and registered to vote (thousands of others went to visit their Bubbe in Florida). In 2010, AJWS and AVODAH, the parent organizations of Pursue, are part of a national network of Jewish organizations working together to make this election count. In seven cities, our partner organizations are living our shared values, working with local coalitions committed to global justice, social change and non-partisan civic engagement.
