What Can Massachusetts Do? State-Level Policy in Turbulent Times

cosponsored by Progressive Newton and Newton Indivisible

In turbulent times, when trust in the federal government’s commitment to human and constitutional rights feels uncertain, how can Massachusetts step up to fill the gap — providing security and ensuring meaningful representation?

Join us in the Alliance Room at the First Unitarian Universalist Society in Newton
(1326 Washington Street, West Newton, Massachusetts) on Tuesday, March 3rd at 7:30pm to explore this important question.

We are pleased to welcome Jonathan Cohn, Policy Director of Progressive Massachusetts, who will speak and take questions about:

Rescind MA 287(g) collaboration agreement with ICE
MA Immigrant Legal Defense Act
MA Data Privacy Act (selling location data)
Protect Millionaire’s tax which funds schools and social programs
Stop MA bill H.4744 which rolls back clean energy

Jonathan Cohn is a co-founder of Progressive Massachusetts’s Issues Committee and Elections Committee, and has chaired both since 2017. In these roles, he has helped expand the organization’s legislative agenda, strengthen its candidate questionnaires, and represent the organization in statewide advocacy coalitions focused on voting rights, immigrants’ rights, and economic justice.
