  • Stepping Up for Democracy: The Episcopal Church and Voting Rights 
    The Episcopal Church’s General Convention has consistently expressed support for fair and free elections and has opposed efforts to suppress the voting rights of United States citizens. The recent Supreme Court Louisiana v. Callais decision further weakens the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The Episcopal Church Office of Government Relations continues to engage Episcopalians in support of voting rights and civic engagement.
