Democracy Resources
for Rabbis

The Jewish community has been an essential part of the American fabric since before our nation’s founding. Thanks to American democracy, we have had the privilege of voting, holding elected office, serving on juries, participating in public debate, and enjoying the freedoms and civil liberties guaranteed by our Constitution. This cannot be said of most Jews in most places at most times, and so American Jews have been – and must continue to be – staunch advocates and defenders of a robust American democracy.

As Jewish leaders, rabbis have a powerful voice and moral weight that has outsized impact in their communities. A More Perfect Union has compiled this list of sources and resources to assist rabbis who wish to lead their communities in protecting and strengthening democracy.

This resource is meant to be a living document that can be updated regularly with new links. If you have any sources or resources that you think should be on this list, please email [email protected] and let us know!
