Elections Matter
“This nation needs to elect leaders committed to moving people out of poverty. Imagine the two [major] political parties accepting the challenge to end hunger at home and abroad and perhaps offering competing approaches to reach this goal. It could happen, if voters decide they want it to.”
David Beckmann and Arthur Simon
Grace at the Table
We are serving God when we raise issues of hunger and poverty in an election year. As people of faith, it is our moral calling to be politically engaged. Hunger is a profoundly political issue. Practicing faithful citizenship is our right under the U.S. Constitution.
