Wednesday May 7th at 6:00 p.m. - The first Democratic State Committee Labor Outreach meeting of 2008 will be held at the IBEW Local 103 union hall located at 256 Freeport Street in Dorchester. Refreshments will be provided. At this meeting participants will have an opportunity to help set the direction, priorities, and structure of the Labor Outreach Committee. You do not have to be an elected member of the Democratic State Committee to attend. All union members who are Democrats or are interested in labor's role at the DSC are welcome.
Saturday May 17th from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. (okay, we know 17 is a bit of a 'lucky 7' stretch) - Labor to Labor Walk in support of healthcare reform. Join the Massachusetts and New Hampshire AFL-CIO and go door to door talking to fellow union members about the importance of healthcare in the 2008 Presidential election. More details will be forthcoming about possible travel arrangements.
Saturday June 7th at 9:00 a.m. - Join the Massachusetts AFL-CIO, Senator John Kerry, and former Governor of NH and current U.S. Senate candidate Jeanne Shaheen at our Annual Breakfast at the Massachusetts Democratic State Convention, held at the Tsongas Arena in Lowell. There will also be volunteer opportunities throughout the day at the convention.
