Regional Town Hall
February 22 @ 4:30 pm – 7:00 pm EST
The Cape Ann Indivisible State–Federal Legislative Team invites residents of Massachusetts Congressional District 6 to this high-impact Regional Town Hall. While hosted in Gloucester, this is a truly regional forum. Invitations have been extended to State Senators and Representatives from contiguous districts across the broader Sixth Congressional District, creating a rare opportunity for constituents and lawmakers to engage face-to-face in one shared space.
At a moment of mounting budget pressure, proposals for additional tax cuts raise urgent questions about the Commonwealth’s ability to sustain essential public services. This evening is designed to surface those questions clearly and publicly—giving constituents the opportunity to be heard and legislators the opportunity to respond directly to the communities they serve.
Speakers include Jonathan Cohn, Policy Director, Progressive Massachusetts; and Crisayda Belen, Campaigns Director for Field First, and who also serves as Project Manager for Raise Up Massachusetts. They will address (1) the scope and urgency of the fiscal challenges and (2) the policy initiatives now under consideration, providing context for personal stories from district residents. Following these testimonials, speakers will pose questions to attending legislators, with time reserved for audience questions.
