Where we are in this moment and what is next for Democracy in Massachusetts?
In 2022 there is an opportunity for BIPOC communities, young people, and immigrants to shape a wide-open gubernatorial election, and cement the progress of reform-driven district attorneys. Also on the table are ballot issues related to sustainable revenue to fund public schools and transportation, and the classification of “gig workers'' with implications for wage and benefits. The redistricting effort in 2021 provides us with additional opportunities to elect legislators who reflect the emerging BIPOC communities. The 2022 cycle has the potential to reshape the political landscape in Massachusetts for the next decade.
