Help Massachusetts Peace Action support the Yes on 4 -- Raise Up Massachusetts campaign,
because...
One Million
Massachusetts Workers Need the Right to Earned Sick Time!
On November 4, Massachusetts voters can vote Yes on 4 to allow workers to take sick
time without losing their jobs.
The business
interests who prevented the earned paid sick days bills from passing the
legislature are poised to spend millions in ad campaigns designed to confuse the
issue. Raise Up Massachusetts plans to contact tens of thousands of less
frequent voters who are likely to directly benefit, to expand the electorate and
clarify any confusion.
You can
join Massachusetts Peace Action's work on this effort in several ways. 1)
Volunteer for shifts at regional call centers in many towns around the state
using the state of the art HubDialer system, which guarantees many contacts with
voters. 2) Use your own phone and a computer at home to do a shift using
HubDialer (after simple web based training in using the system). 3) Call from
an old fashioned paper list. 4) Join door to door canvasses to reach likely
supporters. 5) Reach out to family, friends, co-workers and in your community
to those and ask them to sign a pledge a vote for Yes on 4.
 Please click here to join in the Raise Up Campaign
by volunteering for a shift making calls or reaching out to your friends,
neighbors, and family in support of YES on
4-- the ballot question establishing earned paid sick
days.
Raise Up Massachusetts is fighting
to ensure earned sick time for workers across the
state. For nearly 1
million workers in Massachusetts, staying home to care for themselves or a sick
child could mean losing their job. The ability for workers to care and provide
for themselves and family members should be a right, not a privilege, and now is
the time to make it a reality for working families. Click here to volunteer for one or more shifts contacting voters
or to get YES on 4
committments in your community.as part of our Peace Action team.
