hermionesviolinThis afternoon, Families for Justice as Healing emailed about their Free Her Policy Platform.
Someone in a local Discord dropped a link to a recent JP Progressives email, which included Mass NOW's Menstrual Equity Legislative Agenda.
And then I got an email from Progressive Mass with their 2025-2026 Legislative Agenda.
'Tis the season, apparently.
I knew Progressive Mass was gonna send a legislative agenda eventually -- they keep sending me emails inviting me to sign up for Zooms to get hyped up and I'm like, "Just tell me what bills you support and some talking points for why and I will email my legislators" -- but I was not expecting everyone to drop their legislative agendas at the same time 😂 I think I had in my head that legislation developed organically over the session? Now I'm like, "Okay, can we just pass all these bills and move on?" In part because the MA Legislature is fucking terrible at passing bills, so there are bills I have emailed my electeds about for fucking years because they keep getting re-filed year after year.
