JCJ will continue advocating for campaign finance reforms that strengthen trust in government and ensure that our democracy remains responsive to the people it serves.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

The Jewish Center for Justice is concerned by today's Supreme Court decision striking down limits on coordinated campaign spending.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

Our tradition warns against systems in which power becomes concentrated in the hands of a few while others are left behind. Democratic accountability requires transparency, fairness, and meaningful participation.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

Democracy is strongest when it expands inclusion, not when it redraws its boundaries to exclude. We breathe a sigh of relief that the principle of birthright citizenship status remains intact as a sign that this country strives to reflect dignity, fairness, and belonging for all.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

We at the Jewish Center for Justice applaud the Supreme Court’s decision to reject the Administration’s attempt to end birthright citizenship, a principle clearly rooted in the Fourteenth Amendment and foundational to American democracy.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

As Jews, we carry a long memory of what happens when belonging is made conditional. We know the danger of systems that decide, after the fact, who counts and who does not.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

The Administration's effort to weaken that principle threatened not only legal precedent, but the very idea of equal protection under the law.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

Birthright citizenship is not a policy preference it is a constitutional promise. It affirms a simple and enduring truth: if you are born in this country, you belong to this country.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

We’ll keep fighting for a democracy that includes everyone.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

Mail-in voting helps seniors, working families, people with disabilities, military personnel, and countless others make their voices heard.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

We welcome today’s Supreme Court decision protecting access to mail-in voting and ensuring that ballots postmarked by Election Day and received within five days are counted.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

As we reflect on the anniversary of Obergefell, we are reminded that civil rights progress is never inevitable. It is shaped by people willing to advocate, organize, and insist that our laws live up to the values of equality and justice.

JCJ will continue advocating for immigration policies that uphold both security and human dignity.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

JCJ is deeply concerned by today's Supreme Court decision allowing greater restrictions on access to asylum.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

Jewish tradition reminds us to care for the stranger because we know the experience of vulnerability and displacement.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

People fleeing violence, persecution, and oppression deserve the opportunity to seek protection under the law.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

JCJ will continue supporting common-sense gun safety measures that help protect communities and save lives.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

The Jewish Center for Justice is concerned by today's Supreme Court decision limiting the ability of states to enact reasonable gun safety measures.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

Our tradition places the preservation of life at the center of moral decision-making. We believe policymakers should have the tools necessary to address threats to public safety and reduce preventable violence.

[Jewish Center for Justice @JewishCJustice]

Communities should have the flexibility to address local public safety challenges, and responsible gun safety policies can help reduce violence while respecting constitutional rights.
