WE ARE WINNING

FORWARD TO 15 IN ALL 50

WE DID IT!
 10th Suffolk Votes for $15 an Hour!


On Tuesday, the 10th Suffolk District of Massachusetts made history by voting yes on Question 5 - the advisory question supporting a $15 an hour minimum wage! By an overwhelming majority of 63% working people in West Roxbury, portions of Roslindale and Brookline said 'yes' to a city in which we all can afford to live.

State Representative Ed Coppinger of the 10th Suffolk District will now be held to account on where he stands on the issue of true living wage. Will he listen to the voice of working people in Greater Boston or will he support poverty wages?

Question 5 demonstrates that when we organize in our communities, we can win support from our friends and neighbors in the fight for a better Boston. However, we need you to get involved!

15 Now New England will be continuing the fight in the New Year, building upon the success of the referendum. We need more resources - donations to fund materials and organizers, endorsements from unions and community organizations, and most importantly, involvement from activists like yourself to turn this success into an even bigger victory in the fight back against the corporate attacks on our living standards.

Please donate to 15 Now today or contact us to get involved!
