Did your city or town just have an override vote? Is there talk of an override coming? Wondering what it means for you and your community, or why we have override votes in the first place?
In coming weeks and months, join the Western Massachusetts CPUSA and its allies for a series of community conversations about the fiscal and political crisis in our state. We will cover:
- Basics of the budget process and the origins of Proposition 2½
- The ongoing fiscal crisis and its root causes
- The statewide audit movement, its relation to MAGA and how it’s influencing the override process
- The role of monopoly capital and the Republican party in the assault on our public services
- The path to an anti-austerity movement that can tax the rich and strengthen public services
These meetings are hybrid. Food and refreshments will be provided for those attending in person. We will update this page and social media with meeting details.
Forward together!
