Rabbi Levin is pretty much a one-man band, using a mailing list from a same-named organization from years ago. Bet it would be hard to find 1,000 rabbis who have even heard of him, much less think he’s their leader.
He issues press releases to Christian organizations on just about everything, so, no, it’s not breaking news.
Not saying he isn’t doing God’s work, just saying he has more influence in the Free Republic community than in the Jewish community.
Thank you for the background information. A shame.

Declaration Of Rabbinical Alliance Of America
In light of several misconceptions in regard to certain ongoing political campaigns, the following clarification has become necessary: The Rabbinical Alliance of America (Igud Horabbonim) formally declares that it has never, nor will it ever, endorse any political party, office holder, or candidate, regardless of office, political party, religious affiliation, or political platform.
Statements made and publicized by any spokesman or spokesmen of the Rabbinical Alliance of America are limited to ecclesiastical issues and religious rulings. Meetings with political office holders or candidates are exclusively of an introductory or informational nature.
Member rabbis are autonomous and are free to make their own private endorsements. Such private endorsements are not cleared or approved by the Rabbinical Alliance of America or by any of its committees or sub-committees. Thus, the Rabbinical Alliance of America does not campaign for or against any political party, office holder, or candidate.
Many Church leaders actually ENDORSE anti-life candidates and politicians—they DON’T endorse murderers to murder, AFAIK (although abortion *is* murder according to the Church doctrines). :*(
Glad to see some action finally being taken against these un-Christian abortion/euthenasia promoters!
‘Many Church leaders actually ENDORSE anti-life candidates and politicians—they DON’T endorse murderers to murder’
Please cite an example in which a Bishop shows support for a politician BECAUSE they are pro-choice?
