Volunteer for the Raise Up Fair Share Amendment
Progressive Mass volunteers are collecting signatures with RaiseUp Massachusetts for the Fair Share graduated income tax amendment!
>> Learn more about the Fair Share Amendment Campaign here!
The best way to help working families and build a more progressive Massachusetts is through quality public schools for our children, affordable higher education and a transportation system that gets people to work and customers to businesses.
We need to ask our highest income earners to contribute a little bit more, so that we're ALL putting in our fair share. Getting signatures is the first step in amending the state constitution so we can once again invest in our communities.
It's going to take all of us working together, and there are many ways to help! Just let us know how you'd like to pitch in!
