Boston RISE for Climate, Jobs, Immigrant Rights, & Justice

On Sept 8, a coalition of over 35 faith, labor, racial justice, immigrant rights, youth, climate action, and environmental justice groups are coming together in East Boston to accomplish two goals:

1. Halt the proposed Eversource electric substation that threatens the community.  This project must be reevaluated and offer a more inclusive process for community input, including adequate language translation.
2. Join forces across movements to build long-term collective power for Climate, Jobs, Immigrant Rights, and Justice in MA. We demand:
   1. 100% Clean and Renewable Future
   2. Economic Opportunity for Everyone
   3. Prioritizing a Just Resilience, Relief and Recovery
   4. Union Wages that Support a Family
   5. Pollution-Free Communities and Workplaces
   6. Protection of Workers
   7. Dignity, Respect, & Permanent Protection for all Immigrants
