Member of Congress Judy Chu gave a policy talk in support of UUSJ and wildfire victims on Monday, January 27. Please make donations in support.
Our receipts for this policy talk event will be split with victims of the California wildfires through the UUA Disaster Relief Fund.
The policy talk has occurred but if you can, please consider giving a little more. Let us show compassion and solidarity with the communities impacted by the fires.
Today, our work is more important than ever to defend our faith, our families, our freedoms and our futures. Unitarian Universalists for Social Justice (UUSJ), a 501(c)(3), needs your support to ensure we can continue our efforts in the areas of witness, education, and advocacy. We hold sacred the inherent worth and dignity of every person and strive for a truly multicultural democracy.
UUSJ provides a unique vehicle in our nation's Capital for engaging in national dialogues, civic actions, and advocacy efforts on issues facing our country in real-time, consistent with UU values in support of our mission to advocate, educate and empower to achieve just equitable national policies and actions.
Thank you for supporting UUSJ and helping us show care for the victims of the CA Wildfires
