☎️ Phone Bank to Protect Voters: Tuesdays/Thursdays, 6:00-8:00pm. 

Mobilize voters to take action against dangerous legislation in state houses around the country, the most urgent campaigns may include stopping bills that will make it harder for millions of Americans—especially students, seniors, and veterans—to cast their ballots. We need your help to ensure voters across the country call their state representatives and demand they protect the freedom to vote.

☎️ 5 Calls:  Have your voice heard by our elected officials at the state and national level. Take a couple minutes a day: the calls/emails are tallied by the government official offices, and a way we have a voice in OUR government between elections. 

✔️Check out 413 Staying Connected for Action, MassDems, Indivisible, and the ACLU.

✔️ Get involved with Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy (MIRA) Coalition

✔️Americans of Conscience: Their mission: to provide tools that encourage engagement to strengthen American democracy and social justice.
