Mad won't stop until our most vulnerable receive the COVID relief they need;
Mad joined many Democratic representatives in sending a letter to House and Senate leadership calling for the inclusion of relief checks in the next COVID-19 stimulus package. The letter also reinforces the calls made by countless Americans to provide direct cash assistance in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has caused major shocks to the U.S. economy and public health system in our modern history,” the members wrote. “This pandemic has only worsened existing systemic inequities in our society, with low-wage earners, women, and Black and Latino communities disproportionately suffering from the human and economic toll of the virus.

Direct cash assistance has become a lifeline for the American people.”

Mad is working to ensure that no one can abuse their power in service of racism and abuse;
A rural police department in northern Montgomery County must institute new training policies, including for its top officers, after a months-long probe by the state Attorney General’s Office into allegedly racist and abusive behavior.; Members of the New Hanover Police Department must undergo antibias and anti-harassment training, and the department’s chief must personally model the non-biased, culturally inclusive conduct expected of all members at the direction of the state agency.
