Representatives from a variety of communities had the opportunity to discuss the intersection of faith and the political life and strategize ways to engage with community members to mobilize them to action. We are so grateful to St Paul AME Church Des Moines for hosting!

At Sunday's Delegate Assembly, 115 AMOS leaders from 30 organizations and 2 guest institutions launched our We the People house meeting campaign! Together, we committed to engage 2,637 Iowans in small group conversations about what's getting in the way of safety and happiness for their loved ones. We brought the founding vision of the Declaration of Independence to life and challenged ourselves to work towards life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for all Iowans.
