WASHINGTON (JTA) – The Union for Reform Judaism (URJ) will host a forum for presidential candidates at its biennial moderated by “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd. Todd will interview candidates one on one at the Nov. 7 event in Orlando, Fla., URJ said in a release Thursday, May 21. The candidates will also respond to questions from the 5,000 delegates and the movement’s leadership. Participating candidates will be announced closer to the event. A presidential forum at an event organized by a Jewish religious stream is unusual.
