Our mission
We All Belong Greater Lafayette stands united to defend democracy and uphold civil rights for all. Together, we reject Christian Nationalism, recognizing the threats it poses to the separation of church and state, religious diversity, and immigrant communities. By fostering collaboration among like-minded groups, we amplify a shared message of inclusion and justice. We commit to protecting the rights of every individual, safeguarding the freedom to practice or not practice any faith, and ensuring that all voices are heard. Our actions will strengthen democracy and build a community where everyone truly belongs.

The No Kings: Vote Early events have two objectives: (1) to be visible and and raise awareness by waving signs that encourage early voting (signs will be provided or you can bring your own), and (2) to empower everyone to make an early voting plan by providing a packet of information about voting that you can take home and use to help your friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers make their voting plan. Voting experts will be on site to help answer questions about voting.
No Kings: Vote Early events are nonpartisan and are designed to increase participation from all eligible voters.
The No Kings Coalition of Greater Lafayette will be hosting 5 high-visibility locations on Saturday, October 17, from 1 - 3 pm.
