Does AU endorse political candidates?
As a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, AU is not allowed by law to endorse any specific political candidate and are strictly non-partisan; however, we do champion issues related to humanist causes and the separation of government from religion and consider civic engagement an important part of every atheist’s duty to affecting change in our world. AU encourages members to vote for leaders whose stances on issues most closely align with humanistic values, justice, tolerance and secularism.
