As I continue to travel around our state, it is clear that there is a hunger for a new kind of politics. It is a type of politics that is open and transparent, that is independent of big money interests, that returns voters to power and that requires pro-active leaders willing to stand up and fight for the basic principles of our democracy. With our new website, our blog is now interactive and we invite comments, questions and participation.

DFA Cambridge, Social Workers Endorse Bonifaz

This week, we are proud to announce the endorsements of both DFA Cambridge and the Massachusetts Chapter of the National Association of Social Workers.

"John Bonifaz has been a steadfast supporter of progressive voting rights and electoral reform," said Shai Sachs, chair of DFA Cambridge, on the organization's web site. "He has been tireless in his advocacy for expanded access to the ballot and to the polling place."

"John's record as a political activist and organizer reflects a real commitment to creating a climate of social justice, the basis for a stronger future for Massachusetts," said Sallye Bleiberg of MA PACE, NASW's political action committee.

It is an honor to receive the endorsement of both. The support of these groups and their members adds to a growing grassroots campaign focused on preserving voting rights and strengthening our democracy for all Massachusetts residents. Read more about these endorsements in our blog and in our press release.
