The Second Annual UU Lobby Day at the State House was a great success! Over 100 UUs gathered in the dome of the State House to raise our voices in song, learn how to lobby on issues and fanned out to visit our legislators on the issues of global warming and housing.
This year we advocated for new funding for homeless prevention which was included this week in the House budget. Next stop the Senate. We are also working to expand funding for the Massachusetts Rental Voucher Program. Our second issue is passage of the Global Warming Solutions Act.
Copies of the materials distributed are listed below. Also attached is the Massachusetts Interfaith Climate Action Network Pledge petition. Please send signed petitions back to UU Mass Action at 76 Willow St. Acton 01720
