Dear friends,

We are proud to join together with our rabbinic colleagues in urging you to vote in the upcoming primaries on June 22, 2021. 

The importance of ensuring strong government leadership in New York City for the next four years cannot be overstated, especially in light of the very difficult period the city has endured since the pandemic struck. We cannot stand on the sidelines. Every vote counts, and our community can make a difference.

As Rabbis we are apolitical, and it’s not our place to endorse a specific candidate. But it is our responsibility to care for our community. And this election could have an enormous impact on our community, our synagogues, and our schools. Voting is a civic responsibility and opportunity, and we urge you to vote in this election. 

This year we are tasked to rank our choices. Selecting more than one candidate will enable you to have your vote weigh in more than if you had voted for a single candidate. Click here to learn about ranked voting.

Starting this weekend, you can vote early, and early voting runs from June 12th – 20th. Click here to find your early voting site. If you will be away on June 22nd, click here to get your vote-by-mail ballot.

Sincerely,

• Aviad Bodner, Congregation Ramat Orah
• Naftali Citron, The Carlebach Shul
• Roy Feldman, Congregation Kehilath Jeshurun

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

• Wealth is a blessing. It can provide care and security for those we love. It can help feed, house and provide medical care for the poor and those in need. But it carries risks as well. It can distract us  from living lives of transcendent value.  It might make us feel that we are better than others or  that we are  more deserving of social or political power, It can even undermine our motivation to work and achieve.  As Solomon noted: "Here is a grave evil I have observed under the sun: riches hoarded by their owner to his misfortune" {Ecclesiastes 5:12], I grant you that I have said nothing profound. Still,  sometimes a simple truth is worth recollecting and remembering. [Derived from rabbinic Reflections on Numbers 16:1]
