FROM THE ALL SAINTS’ INTERFAITH CORE TEAM:

Joining our efforts with those of other institutions belonging to Austin Interfaith, we made a considerable impact on recent 2018 elections. We succeeded in getting almost all the viable candidates to support our agenda of issues and got commitments from some 5000 voters to support these candidates. Now, as the electoral process winds down, we are meeting with winning candidates to plan strategies for achieving our goals.
