[TICKETS SOLD OUT! You can still donate by making an "Additional contribution"] Act on Mass Spring Fundraiser: Shining Sunlight on Beacon Hill
Join lead sponsor of the Sunlight Act Senator Jamie Eldridge and activist and scholar Dr. Raul Fernandez for a genuine conversation about the broken state of our democracy on Beacon Hill and how we can work together to fix it.
Shining Sunlight on Beacon Hill: A Conversation with Senator Jamie Eldridge & Dr. Raul Fernandez
When: Sunday April 7, 2:00 - 4:00 PM
Where: Wellesley (exact address will be provided upon purchase of a ticket)
The Massachusetts State House is one of the least transparent in the country. This “old boys club” culture of careerism and backroom deals has led to a government that is slow, timid, and far more conservative than its constituents–all despite having a Democratic supermajority.
Thats why Act on Mass was founded: to hold lawmakers accountable to the people of Massachusetts, not corporate interests.
Our priority bill, the Sunlight Act (S.1963), includes a suite of pro-transparency, pro-accountability measures that would put power back in the hands of the people -- where it belongs.
The Sunlight Act has already cleared a major hurdle this legislative session, and now sits in Senate Ways & Means. We can get this critical bill a vote in the Senate by the end of the session, but we need your help.
Buy a ticket to this fundraiser, or, if you can't make it, make a contribution to help us reach our goal of $10,000 to sustain our grassroots advocacy campaign through July.
