Reform Judaism on PBS

The Religious Action Center (RAC)'s 100-Hour Agenda initiative is going strong! Between now and the President’s State of the Union address on January 23, the 110th Congress will vote on many pieces of legislation of vital importance to the Reform Jewish Movement.

Reform Jewish leaders went to Capitol Hill this week and presented Members of Congress with the RAC’s Agenda on issues including the minimum wage and stem cell research.

A film crew from PBS’s ”Religion & Ethics Newsweekly” shadowed the delegation. The 30-minute program is scheduled to air this weekend, and we encourage you to see the RAC in action (subject, of course, to changes over which we have no control)!

Check www.pbs.org/religion for your local station and time (press “refresh” if it doesn’t work when you first load the page).

Be part of the Reform Movement’s prophetic tradition of speaking truth to power. Learn what you can do by going to www.rac.org for legislative information, insights from our Jewish values, and policy positions adopted by the Reform Movement.
