Democracy is an important value of being a Unitarian Universalist. UUCM is partnering with the Minnesota Unitarian Universalist Social Justice Alliance (MUUSJA) and the UU the Vote campaign to encourage people to vote.
MUUSJA’s goal is to mail 70,000 postcards to contact 150,000 voters in the state of Minnesota. These postcards are targeted to renters in about 15 cities. These are cities where the election was decided by as little as 200 votes. As of this Friday, July, 12, 2024 4300 postcards have been distributed so far in our congregation!
We’re out of postcards for now but hope to get more in the coming weeks. Mike Elliott will be at church this Sunday to collect packets as you finish them. You can also drop them off at the office if Mike’s not around. Postcards will be mailed en masse on September 17, so please return postcards before then.
Each packet contains 60 postcards (more if you’d like), preprinted address labels and instructions on how to fill them out. If you would like to add your own postcard stamp that would be great. You can also contribute at www.muusja.org/donate and mark it “in honor of UU the Vote” to help cover the cost of postage. Mike is also willing to deliver postcards. Contact him with any questions at MikeElliott05@msn.com
