Our Mission. . .
. . . of economic justice is to engage, educate, and activate Unitarian Universalist individuals and congregations, social-justice groups, and their community partners to fulfill our vision of positive systemic change. Using a process of study, reflection, strategy, and direct action, we work collaboratively “to change the economic story from Empire to Earth Community”.
Our Vision
UUJEC envisions a world that nourishes and sustains all living beings, where all people share the riches of the planet, where all voices are heard, where democratic process is practiced, where the inherent worth and dignity of every person is recognized and affirmed as set forth in our Unitarian Universalist principles.
Who We Are
Unitarian Universalists for a Just Economic Community (UUJEC) is a vibrant progressive organization committed to economic justice for all. Our philosophy is rooted in the UU liberal religious tradition—to create a world of justice, equity, and compassion. Our work contributes to a broader movement for social change, in collaboration with the UUA, UU Service Committee and grassroots organizations. We seek to inspire and help UUs to study our society’s economic and social systems and advocate for justice issues such as The Green New Deal and Single Payer healthcare.
Southern Poverty Law Center: House Judiciary Hearing
June 9, 2026
From The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights and Nonprofits Together
On June 9, 2026, the House Judiciary Committee held their second hearing attacking the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) in 3 weeks. Members of the Congressional Black Caucus and their colleagues pushed back with facts, using their time to defend SPLC and name what this hearing really is.
Bryan Fair, Interim President and CEO of the SPLC, testified before the House Judiciary Committee. This hearing is the latest attempt by the corrupt Trump Administration to silence their critics and whitewash extremism. Hauling in SPLC’s leadership isn’t about justice, it’s about intimidation.
This won’t stop with SPLC and they must be stopped in their tracks.
