Day 4: Faith in Action Week

The visits continued this Thursday as a total of 8 people made visits to councilmembers. Rev. Dan Schifeling of the Church of the Nativity went with Rev. Faith McCausland from Kenilworth United Church of Christ, Ruth Snyder, co-pastor at Church of the Nativity, and four congregants of Church of the Nativity. And later in the day, Rabbi Alex Lazarus-Klein of Temple Sinai made the rounds at City Hall.

The first group of 7 talked with Ellicott Councilmember Darius Pridgen, Delaware's Michael LoCurto, and Masten's Demone Smith. Like the previous day, Darius Pridgen maintained that re was supportive of the CBA. Michael LoCurto, a strong proponent of the CBA, said that he would remain committed to the CBA. And Demone Smith stated that he was in favor of it.

Rabbi Lazarus-Klein visited with David Rivera, who had signed the pledge the previous day and who showed clear support for the CBA. All councilmembers who were not in received letters from both parties.
