Faiths United to Save Democracy

By July 19, 2022No Comments

Faiths United to Save Democracy (FUSD) is a nonpartisan, multi-racial, multi-faith, and multi-generation 2022-2024 voter justice campaign focused in the states of AL. AZ. FL. GA. MI. NC. OH. PA. TX. WI

The FUSD campaign exists to overcome the unprecedented assault on democracy aimed at making it more difficult for people living in poverty, vulnerable voters including the targeting voters of color, the elderly, students, and the disabled to exercise their sacred right to vote.

FUSD is a Turnout Sunday/Lawyers & Collars Voter Protection Campaign project. It is built on the 2020 Turnout Sunday/Lawyers & Collars campaign that brought together diverse clergy in sacred collars and election protection lawyers protecting primarily Black citizens at vulnerable voting sites.

In 2020, over 400 new voter restriction laws and proposals in 49 states, many of them empowering state legislative takeover of votes, ignited the creation of the Faith United to Save Democracy campaign. The campaign is rooted in the belief that everyone is made in the image of God and deserves to vote for their convictions in free, fair, and safe elections.
