Dear friends and allies,
It feels like a lifetime ago that Massachusetts became one of the first coronavirus “hotspots” in the country. Since then, our broken system has been laid bare, only to reveal its inequities and subsequent disadvantages for low-income communities and communities of color. Thousands of people are still out of work, many workers still lack health and safety protections, parents are still struggling to find child care to return to work, and our school districts are in flux, unable to reopen schools safely.
So as we look ahead, we must reinvent the world we live in. As we organize and build our collective power across issues and communities, we must also develop, support and vote in bold leadership. With primary elections right around the corner, we urge you to vote and make your voices heard. We must elect leaders who are fighting for working people and vulnerable communities, and are ready to take on our fights at a local level and beyond.
From a safe restart of schools to protecting people’s homes — many of our partners are taking statewide action to bring about meaningful change and CLU is proud to stand in solidarity with them. These efforts value the essential workers that keep our communities healthy, safe, and fed. They also allow us to rethink how to provide the services we rely on and invest in the public good. Below you will find a few ways you can contribute to our fights.
You can help us continue the fight by sharing our Facebook posts and by following and retweeting us on Twitter. You can also receive regular updates from CLU by registering on our website.
