SOCIAL ACTION / SOCIAL JUSTICE OPPORTUNITY

In keeping with our mission to inform our members, the Social Action/Social Justice Committee is excited to share a joint event with Monmouth Reform Temple.

Monmouth Reform Temple, with support from RAC-NJ, is hosting a Zoom conversation between the NJ District 11 legislators, Senator Vin Gopal, Assemblywoman Margie Donlon, and Assemblywoman Luanne Peterpaul, on Monday, July 22, 3 - 4:15 pm in the afternoon. This will be an opportunity for our congregants to learn about the priorities of our representatives and understand how they engage with our priorities. It is also a means to begin ongoing conversations with our District 11 legislators, so that we may come back to them as issues of importance to us all arise.

Both Temple Beth Miriam and Monmouth Reform Temple are physically located within District 11 and we have many congregants in that District.

The registration is being handled by RAC-NJ. Here is the link to register:

The meeting will be recorded. Those who register will receive a link to the recording.

We so hope you can participate or listen to the recording later.
