Zoom with LWV members and US Representative Jake Auchincloss for a virtual Town Hall Meeting on Monday night April 28th at 7:15-8:15 PM. This will be a relatively rare opportunity to hear directly from a member of Congress about what it is like to do the day-to-day work of legislating in the current rapidly changing political climate.
Representative Auchincloss has specifically asked to hear from voters about what concerns them most, about what he and his colleagues in Washington can do to improve the lives of voters in Massachusetts. This will also be a golden opportunity to discuss how recent executive orders might impact each of our towns and the region as a whole. We hope lots of League members and leaders can join us Monday evening for a lively discussion!
One of the issues with local impact is the recent executive order requiring in-person voter registration. According to the order entitled Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections issued on March 25th, registration by mail or at voter registration at events such as those held by the League of Women Voters will no longer be allowed. It is also not clear what the implications of keeping copies of required registration documents like passports, birth certificates, and naturalization papers will be for staffing and filing space at clerk’s offices will be, since it is not clear whether maintaining electronic copies will be sufficient for compliance with the order.
