So far in 2023, over 500 anti-LGBTQ+ bills - many targeting transgender and non-binary youth - have been introduced in state legislatures across the United States. It is time to put an end to this hateful legislation. Contact your state officials today: https://t.co/zPz9lQfIev

"Guided by our Jewish values and the Reform Movement’s long history of supporting LGBTQ+ equality, we remain committed to protecting the civil rights of all people." Read the Reform Movement's full response to the slew of state attacks on LGBTQ+ youth: https://t.co/qDCJkBtawl

It’s almost time for #ReproShabbat! We're excited to partner with the @NCJW for this nationwide event celebrating the critical importance of reproductive health, rights, and access — and teaching about Judaism’s approach to these issues. Join us at https://t.co/qg8SEak1a8.

Roe v. Wade is still the law, but it is under grave threat. We cannot stand idly by and allow abortion rights to be taken away. Read for ways you can take immediate action: https://t.co/ouxEtEo3s3

Proud to witness youth in Texas advocate for themselves and each other. Students like @cameronjsamuels deserve to freely learn and talk about our history and experiences. #FReadom

Thank you to @NFTYOV for writing letters to @CBI_NETTY and their congregation today 🕊

"We must find peace amongst ourselves and keep doing the work that will help us succeed and prevail and prosper as a Jewish people"

Celebrating new traditions...maybe? 🥳🥳

We painted watercolor cards for @AishelHouse today at our @nftytor Thanksgivukkah event at Temple Sinai in Houston 👏🤠 Such beautiful artwork and uplifting messages

[NFTY-TOR SAVP @TOR_SAVP]

As #txlege reconvened this morning, I spoke out against gerrymandering at a virtual press conference. The Reform Jewish movement believes that all people should be counted equally and fairly in democracy because our vote is our voice is our power 💪

[Fair Maps Texas @FairMapsTexas]

Fair Maps Texas will host a virtual press event tomorrow as the #txlege gavels in to redraw voting districts for our communities. Texans will stand together and demand that lawmakers use a fair and open redistricting process that truly benefits the people! https://t.co/209oO4QvPZ

[Center for Common Ground @Ctr4cmnground]

The Senate must pass the #FreedomtoVoteAct to end partisan gerrymandering and ensure everyone has a say in our democracy. We need #FairMaps now!
