All About the Bus

The Nuns on the Bus & Friends two-and-a-half week, nation-wide Vote Our Future tour is our first in-person tour in six years. We're excited to bring multi-faith and secular partners with us for the first time!

Nuns and their partners are rolling across the country — from Philadelphia to San Francisco — to call on Catholics and people of goodwill to be multi-issue voters for the common good. By voting on the many issues that impact our lives, multi-issue voters protect the freedoms essential to a future where everyone can thrive in an inclusive, multiracial, multi-faith democracy.

In addition to mobilizing voters and sharing election resources (guides, toolkits, and more), the Vote Our Future tour will also spread the message of relational voting to make sure voters encourage their friends and family to vote, too!

Why: Some politicians and powerful interests don't want us to vote, especially in ways that strengthen our communities. They try to use fearmongering and scapegoating to pit us against each other while they pass policies to line their own pockets, at the expense of hardworking people. But we know from experience that when we come together and vote for the common good, we deliver good health care, affordable housing, clean air and water, dignified wages, paid leave, and all the things our communities need to flourish.

As Pope Francis says, “The only future worth building includes everyone.” Together, we will build our future by voting for our future, where everyone thrives—no exceptions!

When: September 30 – October 18, 2024.

Where: The Vote Our Future tour will visit 20 cities in 11 states, starting with a kickoff event in Philadelphia and traveling to New Haven, Chicago, Milwaukee, Phoenix, Las Vegas, and more — before ending in San Francisco! See the full schedule here.
