We’re putting $100,000 into the hands of humanists across the country to turn empathy into action on May 2.

A word from our Organizing Director, Jake Via:

“Marriage wasn’t legally on the table for my partner and me during the first seven years of our relationship.

Saving this special, hard-fought right is something humanists everywhere should be committed to.” — Peter Bjork

Our movement is growing.

Our power is collective. Our resistance is nonviolent.

March 28 is our next nationwide mobilization against authoritarianism.

We have the power and we're claiming it TOGETHER.

“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.” Again, this isn’t exactly great moral wisdom. Different sects keep different sabbath days, and they observe it (or not). Most importantly, this commandment certainly violates both the South Carolina and the US Constitutions.

The "Save America Act" is voter suppression dressed up as patriotism.

It targets naturalized citizens, trans Americans, tribal citizens, and natural disaster victims with extra barriers.

Don't let the name fool you.

BREAKING: Some House members are going to try to ram through the SAVE Act 2.0!

This isn't about election security—it's about disenfranchising millions of eligible voters.

They're lying to make it harder for you to vote.

While Americans struggle with real issues, Republicans are wasting time on a voter suppression bill that would block millions from voting.

They're not trying to save America—they're trying to save their power.

“Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain” isn’t exactly a powerful moral stricture. This commandment is only good for certain religious people and not for any secular people. #H4762 #SC #1stAmendment

LAW BEARS FALSE WITNESS.

Do we really want the government interpreting and modifying religious doctrine for public school students? Should the S.C. Legislature produce bills that include fabricated quotes from our nation’s founders? 1/6

The 10 Commandments have no place in public schools. “Thou shalt not make to thyself any graven images” is left out of the Catholic version of the ten commandments, so these public school ten commandments posters ostracize even Catholics.
