Advocate for social justice
Tuesday, January 24 Brian Rushe, executive director of the Joint Religious Legislative Coalition, will speak during Shabbat evening services, which begin at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 27. He will be accompanied by Alison Killeen, a state-wider organizer for the JRLC, and members from various Duluth congregations.
The JRLC is the largest interfaith public advocacy group in the state of Minnesota. Its members advocate at the state Capitol, research and write papers on urgent social issues, and organize interfaith congregations for social justice.
The JRLC's annual lobbying trip to the state Legislature, Day on the Hill, will take place on March 20. Mark your calendars.
