UJP meeting Sept. 11 to Plan "The Campaign to Vote 'Yes' for the 'Budget for All' Ballot Question"
The presidential election campaign this fall is a time when many Americans are talking politics, open to discussion and new ideas. Yet the two major national parties limit the debate and many proposals for real solutions are "off the table." A dynamic coalition of peace, labor, housing and community activists came together to address this problem. Working countless volunteer hours to gather signatures, the coalition has put the Budget for All policy referendum on the Nov. 6 ballot. A "yes" vote advises our representatives to support jobs and social security, fair taxation, ending the Afghanistan War and cutting the military budget. Many people were surprised and pleased when they signed the petition. Now we need to engage the voters with a real discussion of how to put the country on the right track. This is our chance to send a clear message to Congress, the president and the nation about what the people of Massachusetts really want. We need an overwhelming "yes" vote!
