Friend, I hope you and your families are staying safe. The past few weeks have been difficult for our communities, but also a reminder that we are all in this together. That when our communities come together to support each other, we will come out the other side stronger and more resilient in our fight to better our future. We want to ensure you are kept informed on the progress our movement is making, and on the work Alex has been doing as Mayor of Holyoke. Alex has been kept busy working to ensure the safety and well-being of our neighbors in Holyoke. Just this week, Alex was able to bring Comcast into a deal to provide families with free internet access. More than 10 percent of students in Holyoke live in households without internet access. And as schools continue their semesters virtually, there was the potential that hundreds of students would be left behind. Instead, the City will be paying for internet access from Comcast for these families for six months. This is just one example of the many ways Alex understands the basic access issues that plague our communities.

It makes for a great weekend read! Our movement is built on the principle that government should be a voice of the people. And that is why we will continue to highlight the issues our communities face and fight for better leadership in our government. Thank you for being in this fight with us. Have a safe and restful weekend, Max Campaign Manager, Alex Morse for Congress P.S. We’ll be hosting another Community Wellness Phone Bank this Sunday, April 19th at 4pm to check in on our vulnerable community members.
