What Grassroots Organizing Has Accomplished
in Southeast Massachusetts

  • In 1996, we made 10,000 phone calls and registered 1900 voters, defeating Republican Congressman Peter Blute and electing Jim McGovern.
  • In 1997-1999, we won millions in increased funding for affordable child care, helping to provide support for single mothers thrown off welfare.
  • In 1999, we won a $1.50 increase in the Massachusetts minimum wage.
  • In 2002, we won a progressive tax package including closing the capital gains tax loophole, stopping $1.1 billion in statewide budget cuts.
  • In 2004, we helped to restore funding for health care, housing, drug treatment, and welfare training programs that were cut in past years
  • In 2004, we are organizing hundreds of volunteers to make tens of thousands of calls to voters on what is at stake in the 2004 election.

How Grassroots Power Has Made a Difference

  • We have organized events of up to 400 people on child care, health care, welfare, housing and budget cuts, holding our elected officials accountable
  • We have organized thousands of people to call or write their legislators
  • We have involved hundreds of volunteers, many who are new to social activism, helping people find a way to make a difference
