Join AG Maura Healey March 13 in Arlington

Please join Democrats to welcome and support Attorney General Maura Healey at Common Ground Arlington, 319 Broadway, on Wednesday, March 13, from 6 to 7:30 p.m.

Suggested contributions start at $50. Please donate online and RSVP at info@maurahealey.com.

Your contribution is critical to helping Attorney General Maura Healey continue to lead the fight against the Trump administration’s dangerous policies and for progressive values here in Massachusetts.

She has brought major cases against the NRA to reduce gun violence and against Exxon Mobile to protect against climate change and promote clean energy. And she is leading the charge against Purdue Pharma for its role in contributing to the deadly opioid and addiction crisis.

In addition to these and other important legal battles, Maura Healey also spends time advocating for progressive values in MA and in other parts of the country. Her advocacy efforts, including Town Halls, are funded by her Committee. So please help support these efforts by making a donation and then come meet her in person.
