Anti-Trump Evangelicals Are On A Nationwide Bus Tour To Flip Congress
The Vote Common Good bus tour is challenging conservative Christians to question their loyalty to the Republican Party.

On its website, Vote Common Good says it is encouraging people to vote “with religious, racial, and gender minorities” and against policies and politicians who “promise special privileges for any religion, including our own.”

“We need candidates who would not turn their back on the poor and the sick, who would not separate children from their parents, who support liberty and opportunity for all people,” Arkansas pastor Robb Ryerse, Vote Common Good’s political director, said in a statement. “Although I consider myself an Eisenhower Republican, I think people are more important than party, and that’s why I’ll proudly vote for Democrats who share my values.”

Vote Common Good says it is nonpartisan and simply supports the candidate in any given race who is more closely aligned with evangelical values. However, the group is only backing Democratic candidates this year, and one of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s vice chairs, Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.), helped select the tour stops.
