2023 Boston City Council
Progressive Massachusetts itself largely does not engage in municipal-level issue advocacy; however, our chapters do.
Our Boston chapters — JP Progressives, Progressive WRox/Roz, and Allston-Brighton Progressives — collaborated on a questionnaire for the 2023 Boston municipal elections in order to offer a valuable service to the public. You can read candidates’ responses here.
