Inviting Vice President Pence to Taylor University and giving him a coveted platform for his political views makes our alumni, faculty, staff and current students complicit in the Trump-Pence Administration's policies, which we believe are not consistent with the Christian ethic of love we hold dear.

Sign the petition and email, call, tweet, message and contact Taylor any way you can to voice your dissent or ask that Vice President Mike Pence's invitation to deliver the 2019 commencement address be rescinded. When you sign this petition, you'll have the opportunity to make a comment. When you do, please identify yourself as alumni (note your graduation year!), faculty, staff, parent, current student, a member of the Taylor family or simply an ally letting the Taylor administration know how you feel.
