A diverse group of national, state and local faith leaders whose various traditions make up millions of congregants will join the Poor People’s Campaign National Call for Moral Revival on Thursday for an urgent briefing to urge Congress to act before the midterms on critical moral and social issues that directly impact millions of vulnerable neighbors.

Poor people and low-wage workers, along with the National Co-Chairs of the Poor People’s Campaign, will offer testimony to members of Congress on a “Third Reconstruction Agenda” to confront systemic racism, poverty, ecological devastation, the denial of health care, militarism and the false narratives of religious nationalism and white supremacy. These testifiers are among 140 million people who are poor or low-income living in the US, accounting for over 40 percent of the population and nearly one-third of the electorate.
