Don't miss the next Committee on Political Action meeting

To defend ourselves from attacks by privatizing employers, extreme right political foundations and the influence they have on our elected officials, members need both power on-the-job and a strong voice in politics. That's why members are urged to participate in the upcoming Committee on Political Action meeting: Tuesday, June 20, from 6:30 – 8:30pm at the Somerville Community Room, 50 Middlesex Avenue, Somerville, MA 02143 (Orange Line to the new Assembly Sq. T stop.)
