Election Resources

The election this year is crucial, and we need all voters on deck! Towards these ends, we invite you to pledge to be a Faith Climate Justice Voter. And to help you figure out how to volte in line with your values, national Interfaith Power & Light, in collaboration with Faith in Public Life, have created Democracy, Values & the 2020 Election: A Reflection Guide for Faith Communities, a multi-issue faith voter reflection guide. And remember: in Kentucky, the last day to request your absentee ballot is this Friday, October 9.
