“What is a Safe Community”? Learning Panel

Please join us THIS THURSDAY for a learning panel about what “Safe Community” legislation means and how advancing such a designation on the town-level could impact Winchester, based on towns who have successfully achieved this.
Confirmed panelists include Laura Rotolo, Staff Counsel and Community Advocate for the Massachusetts ACLU, and Todd Burger, co-chair of People Power Lexington, a grassroots group who advocated for the successful passage of Safe Community language in Lexington, MA.
As the rhetoric around immigration has intensified, the Supreme Court considers DACA legislation, and ICE continues to conduct raids, now is a critical time to examine the “Safe Communities Act” currently under consideration by the Massachusetts legislature. Come out to learn about what the Network’s Immigrant Justice Committee is doing to advance Safe Community legislation. 
Registration is recommended and can be done here.
