Possible Position on Death with Dignity and Study of Reparations?
Participate in Amherst League Program Planning Virtual Meeting
Date Changed to March 9 at 7 p.m.
It’s that time again: time to plan our priorities for advocacy and education for our next League year, June 2023–2024 and to respond to LWVMA’s proposed priorities and goals for 2023–2025.
The State’s proposal can be found here.
We are asked to approve both priorities and goals, indicating any we would like to see added or dropped from this list.
A Concurrence with the Utah’s League’s position on Death with Dignity has been proposed. This would mean a vote at Convention could make this a Massachusetts position. The Utah position (2016) is here.
Several members of the Amherst League have suggested we propose to the State a study on Reparations. What do you think? Your vote at the meeting can help determine whether or not we propose it.
For our own Amherst priorities: Do we want to continue to focus on affordable housing, climate action and sustainability, the health of the Connecticut River and its watershed, racial justice, single payer healthcare, and the current task force’s review of town government? Think about whether you would like to see us add (or subtract) a priority.
See you online on Thursday March 9 at 7 p.m.
