Show your support and CALL your elected officials at the State House on Wed., Oct 7th , 9am-5pm
Let them know that the PMA Petition & the State House Legislative Amendment are important to you.
Ask them to support S-53 & H-933.
FIND your State Representative and State Senator and how to contact them here: https://malegislature.gov/People/Search
Here’s an example of what to say or write to your State Representative and State Senator:
“I am concerned about big money in our elections and I believe that bills H-933 and S-53 would clear the way for legislation that would correct the problem. These bills are scheduled for the State Constitutional Convention on October 21, 2015. I understand that they will make it “to the floor” to be voted on only if there is mass support from citizens. I am showing my support early to give you time to speak with your colleagues and encourage them to support the bills too. I am asking you to do what is necessary to keep moving H-933 and S-53 forward for a vote at the State Constitutional Convention. “
