Tell Congress to Speak Up for Immigrant Children

As an Immigrant Welcoming Denomination, the United Church of Christ has long worked prophetically to fulfill our biblical call to love the immigrant as our neighbor. No child should have to defend themselves in court alone. To abandon a child to face a legal system built for adults, without a lawyer, is a moral failure. Ask your members of Congress to pass the Fair Day in Court for Kids Act to ensure this never happens.

Tell Congress to Commit to Just Peace

The United Church of Christ has been dedicated to the work of just peace for decades. Earlier this year, the House passed a version of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that would cumulatively give the Pentagon a record $1.5 trillion budget. The Senate blocked it, but there’s every reason to expect another attempt. Ask your members of Congress to vote no on the current NDAA.

Tell Congress to Pass the Real Education and Access for Healthy Youth Act

The United Church of Christ affirms that young people deserve accurate, comprehensive, shame-free sex education, NOT classroom censorship. That is why we’re calling on Congress to pass the Real Education and Access for Healthy Youth Act of 2025, which would empower young people to make informed decisions about their bodies and health.
