A statement from our Executive Director, Bishop Dwayne Royster on President Biden’s ending his candidancy for re-election.
“Following President Joe Biden’s announcement this afternoon that he is ending his candidacy for re-election, I am writing you to share that we at Faith in Action thank President Biden for his lifetime of service and affirm our steadfast focus on ensuring that all voters, especially Black and Brown voters, who are all-too-often ignored and taken for granted, can — and do — vote this November.”

A statement from Omar Perez, our Immigrant Justice Director:
“Immigrants are not political pawns to be used to score points and amass power. They are people with inherent dignity and worth seeking the opportunity to live in safety and support their families. The fact that one of the major political parties in this nation is blatantly calling for mass deportation and continuing to weaponize immigration policy to divide and conquer should anger all people of conscience and good will. Mass deportation is not a solution to our broken immigration system; it’s a symptom of a failed policy approach that prioritizes punitive measures over real solutions. We need comprehensive reforms that uphold human dignity, respect due process, and address the root causes of migration.”

ICE OUT OF PRINCETON.
Yesterday @faithinnj along with @resistencianj
@princetonmutualaid, Solidaridad, @maketheroadnj @daylaborernetwork @njimmigrantjustice hosted a press conference in response to recent ICE raids. Immigrant justice leaders told stories and called for unity in the community.
During the press conference, a faith leader said they witnessed ICE agents harassing people on bicycles who were “brown-skinned.”
“Just because of their complexion they decided it was okay for them to harass people,” the religious leader said. He recalled following ICE agents around that day and seeing residents dodge out of the way because “the agents were driving recklessly.”

On the 10th anniversary of Eric Garner`s murder, we hold close to the grief we feel as well as the urgency to fight for the safety of all our community members as well as police accountability.
As people of faith, we also understand that breath is holy and sacred and how unbelievably unjust it is for it to be taken away in such an indignant way. We join Eric Garner`s family and loved ones in their grief and remembrance of such a beloved father, son, and friend.
Eric Garner should still be here.

After a long search, we are excited to announce that Bishop Dwayne Royster is the new Executive Director of Faith in Action! We are confident that Bishop Royster will lead Faith in Action into a new era where federations and organizing are at the center.
Bishop Dwayne Royster has served as Faith in Action’s interim executive director since January. He has been the executive director of POWER Interfaith in Pennsylvania for a decade, leading ground breaking campaigns to equalize school funding, raise wages for the lowest paid workers and create green jobs and investment in Black and Latino communities.
Royster’s appointment comes amid a contentious presidential election year with democracy on the line and as the organization leans into its rich history of community organizing to increase access at the ballot box for historically marginalized communities and counter White Christian Nationalism.
As Faith in Action looks toward its future, the organization is committed to continuing to support grassroots organizing that builds the power of immigrant communities, elevates the wisdom and leadership of women and the struggle for gender equality, engages young people in building a new America and world, and builds a multi-faith movement that unites people across faith.
