The Social Justice Vision at Stephen S. Wise Temple

Our congregation will see Social Justice as a calling that derives from our sense of God and the imperative of Jewish Tradition. The Stephen S. Wise Temple community will use our influence, power and compassion to be a force for positive, meaningful and effective change in the quality of life on behalf of all the citizens of Los Angeles and the world.

The article that you can access here provides  fact based analysis by the Brookings Institution of who pays taxes and in what form.  It is an important piece of information as we debate America's economic future.
