Your Faith Family Trusts You
Civic engagement is an extension
of the care you already show.
Faith communities have always played a role in civic life. This November, Texas elects a governor, a U.S. Senate seat, and every statewide office. Sign up for updates and we'll help you make sure your congregation is registered and ready, in ways that respect your community's diversity and protect your tax-exempt status.

The November 3 election shapes who represents your community for years to come. But the first step comes long before Election Day. If members of your congregation aren't registered by October 5, they can't vote at all. A simple, timely reminder from someone they already trust can make a real difference.
Congregants who aren't registered yet have until October 5 to get on the rolls. A reminder now can make the difference.
Governor, a U.S. Senate seat, and every statewide office are decided November 3, including races that shape education, healthcare, and community funding.
Confirming a registration takes a couple of minutes at VoteTexas.gov. It's the simplest thing your community can do to be ready.
Bottom line: November feels far off, but the deadline that decides who can vote is closer than it looks. Your congregation deserves to know it's coming, and you're uniquely positioned to make sure they do.
Your people listen to you.
Research consistently shows that people are far more likely to act on information from someone they already trust than from a campaign, an ad, or even the news. As a faith leader, you hold that trust in a way few others do.
Voters contacted by someone they personally know are up to 13 percentage points more likely to vote than those reached by a stranger or campaign volunteer.

A brief announcement. A bulletin insert. A mention in your newsletter. These are small actions that carry real weight when they come from a trusted leader. Midterms Matter gives you everything you need to do this simply, safely, and without taking any political position.
Nonpartisan. Safe. Your tax-exempt status protected.
We understand the responsibility faith leaders carry. Midterms Matter is designed specifically to let you support civic participation without crossing into political advocacy, keeping your congregation, your mission, and your tax-exempt status fully protected.
Every piece of Midterms Matter content is focused on participation, not persuasion. We never mention candidates, parties, or how anyone should vote. Neither will you by sharing our content.
All materials stay well within the boundaries of what 501(c)(3) organizations can share. The toolkit will include a clear one-page guide so your team knows exactly where the lines are.
Your community holds a range of political views. Midterms Matter content is written to be genuinely neutral. Helpful to everyone, alienating to no one.
A single bulletin announcement or a multi-week campaign, it's entirely your call. Whatever you choose works at every level of involvement.
Fit it into what you already do.
You don't need a new program. The most effective ways to help are often the simplest, using the channels your congregation already opens and trusts. Start with a reminder to check their registration.
A brief mention during your service or gathering, reminding people to confirm their registration before October 5. A short nonpartisan script will be ready to use, clear and easy to deliver naturally.
