SUMMARY:Sewage in the Merrimack: The problem and solutions
DESCRIPTION:Do you want to learn more about the problem of massive releases of sewage into the Merrimack\, and ways you can help improve the situation? Please come to our slideshow discussion Nov. 7 at Andover Public Library’s Memorial Hall at 7 p.m.\nThe MRWC has been gathered a substantial amount of data on the issue\, and been an active participant in local efforts to combat the problem. We’ve also been a key player in state legislation intended to alert the public to sewage releases. This event will give a comprehensive view of the problem\, potential solutions\, and ways that the public can help bring about change. We’ll also have a public discussion of the CSO problem — we are seeking comments and suggestions from local residents.\nThis is the second in a series of events we’ll be holding in the Merrimack Valley regarding this issue. Our first event was held in Newburyport on Oct. 18 and drew a crowd of 150 citizens and public officials.

SUMMARY:Trump/Pence Regime Must Go! Protest Rally!
DESCRIPTION:Regardless of whether you voted…\nNo matter who wins\nWe Must Be In the Streets\,\nBeginning the Day After the Midterm Elections \nTO DEMAND AND DEMONSTRATE OUR DETERMINATION THAT:\nIN THE NAME OF HUMANITY\,\nTHE TRUMP/PENCE REGIME MUST GO! \nWEDNESDAY\, NOVEMBER 7\, 5:30 – 7:30 PM Outside South Station at Summer and Atlantic Avenue. \nThese are not “normal” times. For nearly two years\, the Trump/Pence regime has maneuvered through one shocking crime against the people after another\, burying each under yet another monstrous offense. Muslims banned. Immigrant children languishing in concentration camps. White supremacy riding high. Women and LGBTQ people slammed backwards. Threats of nuclear war. Accelerated environmental destruction. A pro-fascist majority on the Supreme Court.\nTrump’s “Make America Great Again” is a 21st century fascist program of Manifest Destiny – “America First” – wrapped in the flag and Mike Pence’s Bible taken literally\, with a program of white supremacy\, misogyny\, and xenophobia.\nThis emergency will not – and cannot – be redressed through the normal process of elections.\nWould a “Blue Wave” really temper the belligerent bigotry of Trump\, a man who lashes out and bludgeons past every obstacle? Could a “Blue Wave” reverse the fascist judges already packed onto the courts? And what if the Republicans win? The Trump/Pence regime – and their whole fascist party – will be even more emboldened to “run the table” and lock in their nightmare.\nFascism can come to power through the normal processes of elections and laws\, but it cannot be removed from power in that way.\nBut there IS a way to stop the Trump/Pence regime. A determined struggle of the people that doesn’t yield and won’t be provoked can create the kind of political crisis that compels their removal from power. We are talking about massive protests that don’t end after one day – but come back day after day after day\, growing to millions raising the demand: THIS NIGHTMARE MUST END: THE TRUMP/PENCE REGIME MUST GO!\nRefuseFascism.org is organizing now to get in position to launch this struggle at the soonest possible time. Protesting the day after the midterms\, when the whole country will be thinking about what the elections mean for Trump’s future\, will put before the people the truth: no matter who wins\, the only real way to stop the Trump/Pence regime will be through determined struggle in the streets.\nDonate and start organizing with RefuseFascism.org today to help wake and mobilize the one force that can stop a fascist America – millions of people in the streets saying:\nNO! In the Name of Humanity\, We REFUSE to Accept a Fascist America!\nThis Nightmare Must End: The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go! \n________________________________________\nRefuseFascism.org is a movement of people coming from diverse perspectives\, united in our recognition that the Trump/Pence Regime poses a catastrophic danger to humanity and the planet\, and that it is our responsibility to drive them from power through massive nonviolent political protest. We are united in these demands:\nThis Nightmare Must End: The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!\nIN THE NAME OF HUMANITY\, WE REFUSE TO ACCEPT A FASCIST AMERICA

SUMMARY:Solidarity Rally With Local 26 Striking Marriott Hotel Workers
DESCRIPTION:Join us to rally with striking Marriott workers and say one job should be enough! On October 20\, the biggest hotel company in the world will hear us from Boston and more cities across the U.S. and Canada. \nOn October 3\, workers walked out at seven Marriott-operated hotels\, including the Aloft Boston Seaport District\, the Element Boston Seaport District\, the Ritz-Carlton Boston\, the Sheraton Boston\, the W Hotel Boston\, the Westin Boston Waterfront\, and the Westin Copley Place. This is the first hotel strike in Boston’s history. \nMarriott is the largest and most profitable hotel chain in the world\, but UNITE HERE Local 26 workers in Boston have had their contracts expire as they struggle to win basic job security\, safer working conditions\, and jobs that are enough to support their families. Although UNITE HERE workers provide the exemplary guest services that keep Marriott profitable\, too many find that when you work at Marriott\, one job is not enough. Workers are making a sacrifice to win jobs that are enough to live in the communities where they work and have the dignity of job security and workplace safety. Please help us make this a reality. \nSee you in the streets October 20! #MarriottStrike #1job
