SUMMARY:PWRR Community Meeting - Jan 13
DESCRIPTION:PWRR Community Meeting – Jan 13\nIt’s time to get together – connect\, chat\, meet candidates\, reflect on 2025\, and plan for 2026. There will be lots of ways to get involved! Join us on Jan 13 at The Square Root. RSVP (helps us plan). FB event. Square Root is usually closed Tuesday evenings; they’re opening for us; come and eat. \nMA campaign systems offer many advantages to incumbents\, and Senator Rush and Congressman Lynch have each had more than two decades in office to show you who they are. So\, we’re offering this opportunity to meet challengers: Persis Yu\, running for State Senate\, and Patrick Roath\, running for Congress. These are not endorsements; it’s important to meet candidates before we get to the endorsement process coming this spring.

SUMMARY:Protecting Massachusetts Communities: Rally & Hearing
DESCRIPTION:Federal immigration agents have been terrorizing communities across Massachusetts in service of Donald Trump’s xenophobic\, hateful agenda. Families are torn apart\, workplaces stripped of employees\, and documented immigrants have feared their status will be revoked. Massachusetts can and must take action to better protect our communities. \nThree key pro-immigrant bills will have hearings next week: \n\nSafe Communities Act (H.2580 / S.1681)\, which would end the voluntary involvement of our public safety officials in civil immigration matters\nDignity Not Deportations Act (H.1588 / S.1122)\, which would prohibit sheriffs from voluntarily renting beds to ICE and ban agreements to deputize state and local law enforcement to ICE\nImmigrant Legal Defense Act (H.1954 / S.1127)\, which would ensure that immigrants navigating our complex immigration courts have legal representation and make permanent a recent budgetary appropriation\n\nJoin us at the State House next Tuesday for a rally and the hearings fo rthese bills. \nProtect Massachusetts Communities | Pre-Hearing Rally  \nTuesday\, November 25\, 2025 at 9:00 AM  \nMassachusetts State House | Room 428 \n \nThe Dignity Not Deportations bill and the Immigrant Legal Defense Act will have hearings at 10 am in Room A2. Information here. \nThe Safe Communities Act will have a hearing at 11:30 am in Gardner Auditorium. Information here. \nIf you are unable to attend in person\, you may log into the livestream of the hearing at the Massachusetts Legislature website.

SUMMARY:Speak Out with MEJA! Fully Fund Our Public Schools!
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, 10/21: Speak Out with MEJA! Fully Fund Our Public Schools!\nPlease join us and raise your voice alongside MEJA and allies in support of our students and fully funding our public schools! \nTime: Tuesday\, October 21 at 3:00 pm \n Location: State House steps (24 Beacon St\, Boston) \nMassachusetts is facing cuts to education and healthcare\, but we have the power to stop irreversible harm to our students and our communities’ futures. The federal government continues to siphon funding and supports from our students\, especially our special needs\, multi-lingual\, LGTBQ+\, and lowest-income students. This year\, the Governor vetoed critical funding to reimburse local school districts for funds lost to charter schools—money that is essential for supporting investments in our public schools. Now\, state legislators have an opportunity to override the Governor’s veto and prevent further gaps in funding our classrooms. \nPlease register at https://actionnetwork.org/events/speak-out-with-meja-at-the-state-house and be part of our collective voice! \nThe community is demanding equitable funding! With Fair Share funds\, we can prioritize closing funding and opportunity gaps. COME RALLY! COME SHOUT OUT! COME SPEAK OUT.
