Shaping a progressive vision
But how progressive is Massachusetts really?
Economics
Health
Justice
Voting
Transportation
Policing reform
We’re one of the wealthiest states in the US, and a leader in economic inequality. Would we rather lead on economic opportunity?
Lots of national policy starts at the state level. States that can lead, must lead.
We still have the reputation for being a progressive state, but we’re not living up to it.
When only some are doing better, we all do worse in the long run.
And how progressive are your legislators really?
Staying Organized Year-Round
Communities of activists and support for budding activists
How can we counter special interest money and legislative complacency? With organized people.
Members and chapters working in unison —
that’s grassroots power.
Advocacy tools so anyone can become an everyday lobbyist
Accountability tools so you can find out what our elected officials are supporting
Are your legislators fighting for progressive policies? How can you know? Statehouse systems don’t make it easy to find out, and when you look, be ready to be surprised!
