Hi everyone, come and join us Monday, June 8th 10:30-12:00 noon at the Unitarian Coastal Fellowship Church, 2900 Bridges Street in MHC for a letter writing event. We are asking people to help write letters to our legislators to consider increasing step pay for experienced teachers who will hit a plateau after 15 years of service. We need to get the word out!

Hey everyone, Tune into PBS on Friday, May 8th for the Broadway version of Suffs- the story of the Suffragist Movement. Click on the link below. This airs 9 EST, 8 CST on PBS.

Created by Tony Award winner Shaina Taub, this musical recorded from Broadway tells the story of the American suffragist movement and the remarkable friendships, heartbreak, and action that brought women together—or, in some cases, tore them apart.

Tell Congress Federal Immigration Enforcement has gone to far!

At its core, this issue is not about immigration policy—it is about the protection of constitutional rights, the rule of law, and the principle that no government agency is above accountability. The use of intimidation, surveillance, and lethal force against people exercising their First Amendment rights threatens the foundations of our democracy and demands congressional oversight.
The League has a long history of defending civil liberties and civic participation. When constitutional rights are eroded anywhere, they are weakened everywhere.

Thank you for standing with the League as we continue to defend constitutional rights, protect civic participation, and hold power to account.
