SUMMARY:How to Vote Safely in the 2020 Election
DESCRIPTION:This year’s election will be unlike any other due to COVID-19\, the removal of straight-party ticket voting\, the reduced number of polling places\, and the fact that\, due to an increase in vote-by-mail ballots\, the outcome of the election will almost certainly not be determined on November 3 or 4. \nCOVID-19 concerns\, efforts to cast doubt on the integrity of the election\, and threats of voter intimidation have increased anxiety about showing up to vote. \nPlease join Reverend George Mason and Rabbi Nancy Kasten as they discuss what you can do to protect your physical health\, the integrity of your vote\, and a fair and safe election in Dallas County with three distinguished guests: \n\nRobert Elkin\, retired lawyer\, Chair of Temple Emanu-El’s Civic Engagement Campaign\, a director of March to the Polls\, a non-partisan voter registration and engagment\, and a founding member of Dallas VOTES\nDr. Philip Huang\, Director and Health Authority\, Dallas County Health and Human Services Department\nReverend Jaime Kowlessar\, Senior Pastor\, City Temple SDA\, Faith in Texas Clergy Table and member of Dallas VOTES\n\nThey will discuss: \n\nThe options open for Dallas County residents to vote and how to choose the best option for you\nThe Adopt-A-Polling Site initiative that communities of faith can participate in\, and\nPublic health recommendations for casting your ballot and working as a poll worker or volunteer elections moniter.\n\nThe event will be live-streamed on Faith Commons’ Facebook page.

SUMMARY:State of our Faith: DISD Bond Propositions
DESCRIPTION:Whether or not you have voted yet in Dallas County\, you are likely confused about the bond propositions at the very end of your ballot. Advocates say they will not increase the property tax rate\, but it says RIGHT ON THE BALLOT: “This is a property tax increase”! \nJoin us as we speak with DISD Board Member Miguel Solis about why passing this bond is so important\, what will happen if we don’t pass it\, and the impact on public schools when state lawmakers require that all school district bond proposals include “this is a property tax increase” language on the ballot\, regardless of the impact on local tax rates. \nIf you have questions\, email us beforehand: cameron@faithcommons.org\, or you can ask them in the chat during the Facebook Live event. \nRSVP below for a good reminder and direct link right before the event!
