SUMMARY:Lobby Day for Human Rights and Freedom
DESCRIPTION:Lobby Day for Human Rights and Freedom\nA lobby day is a day when advocates and community members come to the State House and visit legislative offices to try to speak with legislators and legislative aides about why particular bills are important to them. This lobby day is cohosted by: Families for Justice as Healing\, Prisoners’ Legal Services of MA\, Keeping Families Connected Coalition\, Massachusetts Against Solitary Confinement\, Progressive MA\, The Campaign to End Life Without Parole\, and Drop LWOP New England. \nPeople who are in prison and jail need meaningful pathways to release\, conditions of confinement that support personal growth and prepare them for re-entry\, and to strengthen their connections with family and community. We hope that the lobby day will help illustrate these needs to legislators. \nIf you are interested in joining us\, please fill out this form ASAP and ideally before Monday\, March 31st  so that we can identify which volunteers will visit which legislative offices. If you have never participated in a lobby day\, don’t worry – we will be providing training on lobby day logistics\, how to speak to legislators and staffers\, and talking points on each bill. You can find factsheets on these bills on the PLS website at https://plsma.org/legislation.
