JCUA Votes mobilizes our local Jewish community to endorse, elect, and co-govern with progressive leaders in Chicago and Illinois.
For 60 years, the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs has pursued justice by bringing together the Jewish community to pursue justice in partnership with our neighbors. We’ve seen time and time again that when people come together across backgrounds and experiences, we can achieve big wins.
JCUA focuses on issue-based campaigns, organizing alongside diverse communities to change unjust laws and transform broken systems. Along the way, JCUA members realized that in order to be the most powerful organization possible, we needed more tools in our toolbox. This is where JCUA Votes comes in.
JCUA Votes shares the values and vision of JCUA, but pursues change through electoral politics. With JCUA Votes, members support and hold accountable elected leaders who share our mission to combat economic injustice, white supremacy, and antisemitism.
