excited to announce... first GWP grant!

If you’ve been following Groundwork Project these last few weeks, you know we’ve talked a lot about our home state: Massachusetts. With its progressive reputation, it’s easy to assume that our state lacks little when it comes to blue infrastructure, coalitions and capacity. But that coul…

recap of our amazing event last week

I wanted to take a moment and circle back about a Facebook Live Groundwork hosted that put a spotlight on Massachusetts organizing and the importance of it. Massachusetts is the home base of Groundwork. Those who live elsewhere may see a solidly blue state without much work to be done to…

[Invite] Let’s Talk

So much of our work at Groundwork Project these first few weeks has been behind the scenes. We’ve been having conversations with community organizers all across the country, listening, learning, brainstorming, and putting an action plan together. But the conversations have been so inspirin…

I get this question a lot

I wanted to take a moment to step back and revisit the mission of Groundwork Project. I created GWP to support community organizers, advocates, and activists in Massachusetts and across the country who are working year-round to build a just, free, and equitable future for all. We’re looki…

Support TX

Hey team - I’m heartbroken by what we’re seeing in Texas. I know you are too. As frustrating as the responses of Governor Abbott and the purveyors of the state’s power grid continue to be, what is amazing -- as always -- is the response of local Texans and organizers across the country mo…

Platform is a privilege

Recently, I’ve announced a few new projects I’m taking on: working on the Poor People’s Campaign and contributing to CNN. All of it comes back to what we’re doing here at Groundwork. Having a platform is a privilege – one I seek to use to its full potential in GWP’s work. Over the last fe…

Really, what’s in a name?

If my team were writing this email, they’d tell you about how painful the process was for me to decide on a name for our new PAC. But, it was really important to get this right, even if we went back to the drawing board at the 11th hour, only to come back to exactly where we'd started. I w…

let’s get to work

I'm really excited by your response to the launch of Groundwork! Beginning a new journey always brings with it a level of risk and uncertainty but your willingness to join me in this effort tells me that we’re on the right track. Now it’s time to get to work. The Groundwork team is puttin…

my why

I wanted to share with you exactly why I decided to launch Groundwork Project. The 2020 cycle had a lot to do with it. Last year painted a crystal-clear picture for me of where Democratic time, attention, and dollars need to be focused: Year-round community organizing. However, what I’ve se…

did you see my news?

I hope you saw the news by now. If you haven't, today I formally launched Groundwork Project, an effort dedicated to supporting community organizing in Massachusetts and across the country. It's time for the Democratic Party to reimagine how we party-build. It’s time to abandon boom-or-bust…

eager to share this news with you...

We’re ready. We’ve put so much time, energy, and thought into this project over the past several months, and I could not be more excited to finally share it with all of you! Here’s how it started. As my time in Congress came to a close, I found one thing weighing heavy on my mind: What do…
