Governor Baker, please. No non-essential state funded trips to Indiana.

We, the citizens of this state, support equal rights for all. This new Indiana Religious Freedom Law is wrong and could be the first step in discrimination for all genders, faiths, origins, positions or any category a bigot could use to justify this and other discriminatory laws.

Any radical or self-interested group can make a plea that they support their own beliefs in order to justify this distorted law.
We need you to take a stand that means something. Join Vermont and Connecticut and take a positive step.

to take some action. I phoned both our U.S. Senators yesterday requesting they say something to the Gov; one Senator's office thanked me for calling, the other said they would pass my message along to the Senator.

him back. That's the city equivalent of recalling a US ambassador or envoy from a bad behaving nation, so good on, Mayor Walsh.
