Your Legislators for the Guaranteed Housing Stability Act:
Tens of thousands of families across Massachusetts will be at risk of
eviction when the state's eviction moratorium expires on Aug 18. The
bill HD.5166 will prevent a massive surge of unjust evictions and
foreclosures due to COVID-related debt, prevent rent hikes and
no-fault evictions as we recover, and help establish a Housing
Stability & Recovery Fund to relieve small owners.

Support the MA Indigenous Legislative Agenda: For 400
years, Massachusetts has ignored the rights and concerns of Indigenous
people. Now is the time for the Legislature to pass these bills and
stop ignoring Indigenous voices! We need to flood the State House with
support emails by July 27. Learn more and take action here.
Email your Rep to Co-Sponsor the Immigrant’s Driver’s License
Amendment to the Police Reform Bill: Urge your state
legislators to pass An Act Relative to Work and Family Mobility
(H.3012/S.2641) this legislative session. It would enable all
qualified drivers, regardless of immigration status, to apply for a
standard license. Similar legislation in 16 other states has lowered
the number of uninsured drivers, reduced hit-and-run accidents,
lowered insurance premiums for everyone, increased state revenue
through license applications, and boosted state economies through
increased auto and insurance sales. Take action here.
Invest in Our Recovery with Raise Up Massachusetts:
Before the pandemic, the Massachusetts economy was working great for
those at the top, but that prosperity was not reaching most of our
people and communities. To relieve the economic damage to workers,
families, and businesses, and to tackle racial inequities, we need a
government response that rises to the needs of our communities. Sign the petition. Plus, join an Invest in Our
Recovery launch rally: find a nearby action here.
