What do you care about?

Is it health care? The separation of church and state? The
environment? Our right to free speech? Regardless of what matters
most in your life the 2008 elections will have an enormous impact on
these issues. Now more than ever, all faith voices need to be heard
in the political process. It is our right and our duty to participate
in forming a government that reflects the will of its people.
Your vote will make a difference. Matters of poverty, racism and
struggle are not isolated to far off lands but are present in every
corner of our great nation. An educated electorate can be a powerful
voice in lifting up and eradicating injustice across this land. We
can literally transform this great nation with our
vote. <http://www.ucc.org/ourfaithourvote/our-faith-our-vote-downloads.html

"Shout out, do not hold back! Lift up your voice like a trumpet!" (Isaiah 58:1)
The message is clear. This is our faith and our vote.
