Education, leadership development, and advocacy from a progressive Jewish platform

The Jewish Center for Justice is a distinguished social justice, education, and leadership development platform that empowers current and future leaders to build a more compassionate and just society.

A diverse movement and community spanning generations and denominations, JCJ connects Jewish justice activists with unique opportunities to formulate their voices and make a real impact on issues such as immigration, gun violence prevention, economic justice, climate change, and more.

“Engaging with JCJ on campus has enriched my college experience by providing the tools and confidence I needed to raise my voice for justice, as well as a better understanding of how my activism is intrinsically linked to my Judaism.”
— Kevin Gibson, UC Berkeley

JCJ’s 2026 Midterm Election Voter Guide

JCJ’s 2026 Midterm Election Voter Guide

Election Day is Tuesday, November 3, 2026, and the Jewish Center for Justice is committed to helping our community vote informed, vote their values, and make their voices heard.

Voting is one of the most basic rights in any democracy. American Jews have long stood with disenfranchised communities in support of voting rights, and JCJ continues to advocate for efforts that protect access to the ballot box for every eligible voter.

That’s why we created the JCJ 2026 Voter Guide, a practical resource for Californians preparing to cast their ballots in this year’s midterm election.

The guide includes:

  • Key election dates and deadlines, from vote-by-mail ballots and voter registration to Election Day
  • JCJ’s positions on select statewide ballot measures, including Propositions 1, 4, 5, 39, and 45
  • A step-by-step voting plan to help you prepare before casting your ballot
  • Official California voting resources to check your registration, learn about voting by mail, and find additional voting information

As a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization, JCJ does not endorse candidates or political parties. Our voter guide takes positions only on propositions that directly intersect with the issues JCJ has worked on and the Jewish values that have consistently guided our advocacy.

Read the full JCJ 2026 Voter Guide below to learn what’s on the ballot and make your voting plan.
