This episode of Episco-Pols features two guest speakers in conversation about the role of secretaries of state and how voters can get trusted information about the upcoming election. The Rev. Canon C.K. Robertson, canon to the presiding bishop for ministry beyond The Episcopal Church, interviews the current president of the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS), the Honorable Scott Schwab of Kansas. NASS is the nation's oldest, nonpartisan professional organization for public officials. Their president is elected from within the membership, and each term alternates political party affiliation. How might a secretary of state play an important role in our country’s election? Listen to the episode to find out.

NASS has also continued their “Trusted Info” initiative this year with #TrustedInfo2024 to help voters connect to their local election officials and learn trusted, accurate information about our country’s elections. We hope you will make use of their resources and recommendations this election.

The Office of Government Relations aims to represent the policy priorities of The Episcopal Church to the U.S. government in Washington, D.C., and to influence policy and legislation on critical issues, highlighting the voices and experiences of Episcopalians and Anglicans globally. The office facilitates the Episcopal Public Policy Network, a grassroots network of Episcopalians engaged in the ministry of public policy advocacy.
