SBA Newsletter Reaches Bicentennial Milestone |
|
The very first Swing Blue Alliance newsletter was a simple list of activist events in the Greater Boston area, sent on June 11 2018 to 82 supporters. Now, issue #200 is being sent to over 15,000, and our awesome activist community hosts way too many events to list in one place. |
|
Our goal for all newsletter issues is to make it easy for volunteers to find ways to turn swing states blue. With thanks to all our readers, we've prepared a little glimpse into the creation of the newsletter, from issue 1 to issue 200. |

Shout-out to all who attended the June 11 March for our Lives rallies in Boston and around the country! As young activist Justin Meszler (from Sharon) said at the Boston rally, "This time can be different. Today, hundreds of thousands of people are marching across the country, demanding action on gun violence. And my generation, the generation that has lived through active shooter drills, through school shootings, is growing up. And we’re leading the charge." |
