Indivisible Acton Area and IndivisibleLAB cohosted our first Take Action Forum of 2023, Tending the Flame of Democracy: Massachusetts Legislation. After all, the reason we work so hard on elections is to elect people who will reflect our values and make them into law. Not only can we make life better here in Massachusetts, we can take a page out of David Pepper’s playbook and provide a strong democratic model for other blue states.
Our guest speaker was Jonathan Cohn, Policy Director of Progressive Mass. He gave us a snapshot of some of the important legislation PM is advocating for. Find their whole list here. What really captivated us was strategies to advocate for these bills- and our Coffee and Conversations initiative is a crucial part. We’re also adding a Massachusetts section to Turn Purple 2 Blue, our easy-to-use TAKE ACTION website!
