WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ACHIEVE OUR VISION OF A JUST, EQUAL, PLURALISTIC FUTURE FOR ISRAEL BY VOTING TO SUPPORT progressive JUDAISM IN THE
2015 WORLD ZIONIST ORGANIZATION ELECTION.
Right now, the Zionist Movements represented in the UK are holding elections to determine UK Jewish representation to the World Zionist Congress (WZC), the highest legislative body of the World Zionist Organization (WZO). The WZO provides a forum for all the world’s Jews to come together and deliberate about issues affecting both Diaspora Jews and the state of affairs in Israel.
19 seats in the Congress are dedicated to the UK. The composition of the Congress has both financial and policy implications in Israel, as resources are directed to recipients in Israel based on the power each party holds within the Congress, and the policy positions of those parties.
In short, these elections are the strongest way for British Progressive Jews to promote and encourage the ideals of justice, equality and democracy in Israel itself and help build the kind of Jewish State we all know is possible.
