BE HEARD! ADVOCATE FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION
Legislative and Political Action Team members advocate for issues that matter to you and your students — high-stakes testing, funding and the future of charter schools, to name a few. Legislative and Political Action Teams are overseen by Senate district coordinators.
Municipal Elections and Overrides
Building member and community engagement to win more for public education
MTA affiliates can seek support from Grassroots staff on local elections.
What we need to get started:

- Insight to local capacity to engage members in voter outreach.
- A campaign message, talking points or information that can be used for mailers, emails, etc.
- Information on group, coalition, or campaign outside of the local managing the election.
Types of campaigns:
- Overrides, debt exclusions and town meetings,
- Mayoral, city council, school committee and select board races.
