Watch the RAC's very own @rabbisaperstein as he joins the People's Filibuster for Gun Safety, TODAY at 7 pm. For too long, Congress has stood idly by as the plague of gun violence has destroyed our country - we can and must do better: 24-7.us

The VP-elect put it perfectly. Having seen @neeratanden over the years - her brilliance, her experience on such a broad range of issues, her tenacity and integrity, Neera will be a superb OMB director.
Kamala Harris@KamalaHarris

Like me, @neeratanden was raised by a single mother and knows firsthand the importance of having an economy that treats all people with dignity and respect. I know with her at the helm of the Office of Management and Budget our budget will fully reflect our values.

A: Running down to the Supreme Court to see Justices Kagan & Alito dip a quill in ink for a scribe to write the words in a new Torah: “Justice, justice shall you pursue.”

Q: What could tempt me to leave, even for a few minutes, the 1,200 social justice leaders at #RAC19, @therac’s biennial Consultation on Conscience?

This @hrw Report underscores, once again, the growing repression of the #Uighur community. On #YomHaShoah, we keenly remember the terrible suffering inflicted on people because of their identity, when good people stand by idly. China must change its policy. Now.

From Sri Lanka to Christchurch to Tree of Life to the three black churches torched in Lousiana, civic political and religious leaders must protect the right of all to pray with safety and security.

The world grieves for the hundreds killed and wounded in Sri Lanka. We stand in solidarity with the people of Sri Lanka -- and with the entire Christian world in the face of such a violation of the holiest day of the Christian calendar.

Imam Magid and I walking through sprawling refugee camp, among those sheltering hundreds of thousands in Bangladesh. Horrifying stories of brutality; heroic stories of survival; inspiring stories of hope.

It is with a heavy heart that we share the news that Rabbi Lynne Landsberg - one of the most influential and beloved Jewish social justice advocates, a champion for #disabilityrights, and a dear member of the RAC family- has passed away. May her memory be for a blessing.
