Cambridge-Somerville for Change is kicking off our Economic Fairness campaign at a community meeting this
Wednesday, September 21st, at the Central Square YMCA in Cambridge, starting at 7:00 PM. We're beginning to work on several parallel paths, including
- Educating voters about Scott Brown's opposition to economic fairness policies, like voting to end unemployment benefits and supporting a budget that eliminates job-training programs.
- Lobbying Senator Kerry and the other members of Congress's Deficit Super-Committee to preserve the social safety net.
- Support the Contract for the American Dream campaign to protect and grow the middle class.
Gradually, as our attention turns toward the 2012 elections, the issue advocacy campaigns will become more heavily oriented toward electoral organizing. Our goal is to build the popular, progressive policy arguments to draw distinctions between liberals and conservatives, Republicans and Democrats, in an issue arena where the overwhelming majority of voters agree with us. It's a big goal. We'll need a lot of help.
Can you join us on Wednesday?
