[PDM Info] More Endorsements-Ballot Questions and Legislators

[Susan I. Grossberg]

Hello fellow Progressive Dems,

I am grateful for the opportunity to propose that PDM endorse the single
payer/universal health care question on the ballot in these districts:


Gloucester, Rockport, Essex, Manchester by the Sea

  -Rep. Ann-Margaret Ferrante, 5th Essex



Cambridge, Everett, Boston

  -Rep. Dan Ryan, 2nd Suffolk


Boston: Roslindale, Brookline, West Roxbury

  -Rep. Bill MacGregor, 10th Suffolk


Boston: Roslindate, Hyde Park

  -Rep. Rob Consalvo, 14th Suffolk


Hudson, Maynard, Stow, Bolton

  -Rep. Kate Hogan, 3rd Middlesex


Newton, Waltham, Watertown

  -Rep. John Lawn, 10th Middlesex


Arlington, Belmont, Cambridge

  -Rep. David Rogers, 24th Middlesex


Milton, Randolph

  -Rep. Bill Driscoll (not running for reelection), 7th Norfolk


Alford, Becket, Dalton, Egremont, Great Barrington, Lee, Lenox, Monterey,
Mount Washington, New Marlborough, Otis, Richmond, Sandisfield, Sheffield,
Stockbridge, Tyringham, Washington, West Stockbridge

  -Rep. Smitty Pignatelli(not running for reelection), 3rd Berkshire


Agawam, Blandford, Chester, Granville, Montgomery, Russell, Southwick,
Tolland, Huntington, Middlefield

  -Rep. Nicholas Boldyga, 3rd Hampden


Westfield, Southampton

  -Rep Kelly Pease, 4th Hampden


The exact language of the question is:

"Shall the Representative from this District be instructed to vote for
legislation to create a single-payer system of universal health care, that
would provide all Massachusetts residents with comprehensive health care
coverage including the freedom to choose doctors and other health care
professionals, facilities, and services and that would eliminate the role
of insurance companies in health care by creating a publicly administered
insurance trust fund?"

We are still waiting for the Secretary of State to assign ballot question
numbers for each districts' ballots, which is expected around September 9th.

There is more info at masscare.org.  Should you have any questions or need
anything further, please do not hesitate to contact me.  Thank you!!!

In solidarity,
Susan Grossberg
