I’m reaching out today with a very specific goal. One that can shift the future of Massachusetts politics for the foreseeable future.

The Democracy HUBS are a new group of six community organizing collectives across our state. Their early track record speaks for itself:

Last year they worked with and supported 38 community organizations in 17 Gateway Cities and Boston to provide data and guidance on how to run strong field programs.
They conducted 80,000 conversations with voters, 71% of whom are likely people of color (compared with 20.8% of all eligible voters).
They organized coalition phone banks to call every low-income (household income under $40,000) Spanish-speaking voter, every low-income Black voter, every low-income known Chinese-speaking voter, and every known Haitian Creole-speaking voter.

Now they are prepping for a post-COVID world and a highly contested election cycle where Democrats in Massachusetts have a full political plate: Drawing new maps to ensure equitable redistricting, building support for ballot initiatives like the Fair Share Amendment, and trying to win back the corner office after years of a Republican governor.

To help meet these challenges, Democracy HUBS is building longer-term capacity for integrated voter engagement, similar to what Stacey Abrams and other activists undertook in Georgia.

Like these counterparts, Democracy HUBS has the track record to prove they make good use of every dollar in the door to build sustained power in communities often overlooked in our political process.

With Groundwork, I’m personally committed to help them raise another $25,000 to close their budget gap for 2021. Contribute now.

Together, we can win equitable political representation, fair districts, policy reforms to address systemic injustice, and a political system that reflects and responds to all communities in the Commonwealth.

Your contribution to Democracy HUBS will be put to work immediately to support local grassroots leaders from communities of color, reach 1 million voters, and move a statewide equity agenda in the next four years.

Let’s do this! Chip in now.

Thanks for answering this call,

Joe

Groundwork Project was founded by Joe Kennedy III to support community organizers, advocates, and activists nationwide who are working year-round to build a just, free, and equitable future for all. For decades, the Democratic Party has under-resourced, under-valued, and under-recognized the importance of local political infrastructure and year-round grassroots organizing. This needs to change.

We're directing resources, attention, and support to the local advocates and state-based organizations doing the deep, long-term organizing that Democrats need to build a more diverse party, expand its base, win elections, and deliver progressive policy reforms. Contribute now.

Individual contributions will be allocated as follows: $5,000 per calendar year to a bank account that operates as a Federal PAC, and the remainder to the Non-Contribution Account of our PAC.
