The organizations in the Minnesota Sanctuary State Coalition represent more than one million Minnesota residents.
As an interfaith and grassroots Coalition, we are motivated and joined together by our common values as citizens of Minnesota, of the United States, and the world.
We encourage Minnesota faith institutions
and grassroots organizations to join the Minnesota Sanctuary State Coalition
(MSSC). Joining the MSSC is an easy two-step process. First, we ask your
institution or organization agree to support and endorse this Position Paper,
then, we urge your organization to name up to two representatives to serve on
the MSSC Leadership Team or on a working committee which meets approximately monthly.
