The Health Equity AIW has been approved for a final vote during the General Assembly. Please vote “yes” and please join with others in organizing for health and safety during the hot weather months (and beyond.) Sally gets it right. The Health Equity AIW should have been a CSAI proposal and there should have been 3-4 years of discussion, with congregations consulted and lots of opportunities for amendments. Every Unitarian Universalist, without exception, has had some experience with the COVID-19 pandemic, and many can speak from personal experience about the impact of climate change and other public health emergencies. Big problems to note: The CSAI process doesn’t exist in today’s world. As Sally notes, there are people who are hurting today. Much of the UU organizing for health activity will have to happen at the grassroots level. ASAP.
