Democracy Task Force
About Democracy Task Force
Purpose: Democracy Task Force was established in 2025 to help our congregation become more powerful in the work of resisting authoritarianism and creating a democracy that prioritizes the needs of the people and dismantles systems that prioritize the rich and powerful.
Our activities include:
- Mobilizing for protests
- Bringing political education and democracy skill-building to the congregation
- Letter writing and visits with elected officials
- UU the Vote - a program to educate and turnout voters in upcoming elections
Partners: We seek to do all of our work in relationships of accountability with the wider community, including with organizations such as: Indivisible, 50501, Hoosier Action, local labor unions, veterans organizations, Bloomington Alliance for Immigrant Rights, Side with Love, Showing Up for Racial Justice.
Get involved: All of our calls to action are posted in the Friday Update email and on the UUCB website (Justice & Advocacy Corner). Stay tuned for volunteer opportunities this fall to help us plan bigger projects. You can also email the task force at democracy@uubloomington.org.
