Budget for All Resolution Hearing on Wednesday in Boston at the State House

Please join us in Boston for this important Budget for All Resolution hearing on Wednesday  at the State House.  Walpole and Norwood voters in the 12th Norfolk State Representative District  voted overwhelmingly YES for the Budget for All referendum question in 2012 by 72%  to 28%. The Norfolk State Representative District consists of half the Walpole precincts and all of Norwood.  The referendum question called on our state senators and representatives to vote for a resolution from the Massachusetts state legislature asking Congress and the President to support the Budget For All.  A convenient way to get to Boston is via the Franklin line train out of Walpole at 11:06 AM, which will get you to Boston in plenty of time for the rally at 12:30.
